Road Safety Bill [HL]

I start by thanking noble Lords for their support and for their informed remarks in support of the amendment. Before the Minister’s remarks I thought that this modest amendment might not be in the right place, but as I listened to him talking about priorities I wondered whether it is in the right place if we want to set priorities about what the Bill aims to do. In a way, the test against which this Bill needs to be measured is the impact it will have on, particularly, children and children in deprived areas. I thank my noble friend for his remarks and, indeed, for reassuring us that the issue is a priority for the Government. I shall read his remarks with care. I beg leave to withdrawn the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 3 to 5 not moved.] Clause 1 agreed to.
