Abstract

A steering column assembly includes a steering column shroud comprising an inner member (10) and an outer member (20) , the inner member (10) being at least partially received within the outer member (20) , a support bracket (40) which is fixed in position relative to a part of the vehicle, the outer member (20) passing between two spaced apart arms of the bracket (40) , and a clamp assembly which includes a cam mechanism movable between a locked position in which the clamp mechanism fixes the inner member and outer member in position relative to the support bracket and an unlocked position in which the clamp mechanism permits movement of at least one of the inner and outer members relative to the support bracket.
