Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (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 am grateful to all noble Lords who have contributed to the debate, especially the Minister. It is important to note that my amendments would not affect emergency calls. They seek to separate emergencies from training. I am not keen on returning to this issue but, if we carry on like this, we run the risk of a very serious accident involving multiple casualties and not only a terrible tragedy involving one person. What would happen if a police car ran into a bus queue? That would leave the Minister with all kinds of difficulties to deal with. As I say, I am not keen on returning to this matter. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 69 to 73 not moved.] Clause 17 agreed to.
