Proceeding contribution from Lord Bradshaw (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 26 October 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [HL].


Road Safety Bill [HL]

Further to that, the legislation for the introduction of cameras in bus lanes has taken at least five years to translate into regulations. It is reported in the press this week that the department has not yet type approved the cameras. Although the legislation is coming in on 1 November, no local authority will be able to implement it because the cameras have not been type approved. Therefore, assurances about secondary legislation do not cut too much ice with me. But, having said that, I shall withdraw the amendment and think about it. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
