Road Safety Bill [HL]

Before my noble friend sits down, I take what he says about the detail being in secondary legislation. However, the Committee stage and subsequent stages of this Bill provide the only opportunity for noble Lords to question the framework within which the regulations will be published. The framework is what some of us do not like. The proposal is for the number of points to be reduced from a minimum of three to a minimum of two. If my noble friend would assure us and accept an amendment that substituted ““3–6””, many of us would be very happy. We would be happy that the regulations would be published and they would probably go through.
