§ Mrs. MayTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what plans he has to pass funds raised from fines for speeding identified using a speed camera to the police forces concerned. [29761]
§ Mr. MichaelNone. Hypothecating the revenue from speeding fines would result in expenditure on traffic enforcement being determined by the income generated rather than the relative priority of the activity. We are examining the current funding arrangements for the cameras to see what more might be done.
