Proceeding contribution from Ben Bradshaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 3 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Daylight Saving Bill.


Daylight Saving Bill

Is it not time that we scotched the myth about the rate of road accidents in Scotland during the experiment? Does the hon. Gentleman accept that the overall reduction in the number of fatalities and serious injuries was 11% in England and Wales and 17% in Scotland—a significantly higher number? A very small increase in the north of Scotland was massively outweighed by the overall decrease in the mornings throughout Scotland.
