Clause 17 - Penalty points
Road Safety Bill [Lords]
6:15 pm
Owen Paterson (Shadow Minister, Transport; North Shropshire, Conservative)
I shall not be tempted to go further down that route. We have had an interesting debate. We think that there are merits in our amendment proposing replacing the reference to “2-6” penalty points with “1-6” penalty points. I should like to press that to a vote. I am also interested in testing the mood of the Committee on the issue of raising HGV speeds from 40 mph to 50 mph.
