Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanningfield (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 July 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [HL].


Road Safety Bill [HL]

I was interested to hear what the noble Baroness said, and I hope that the Government will consider taking those powers. I am sure that we will be asking questions and debating this further. Before I withdraw the amendment, I want to reinforce the number of accidents that occur with heavy goods vehicles. We know that. The more that can be done to prevent them, the better. With that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
