§ Mr. Brightasked the Minister of Transport what he is doing to promote small road safety schemes of the kind mentioned in paragraph 33 of his White Paper on roads.
§ Mr. Kenneth ClarkeWe strongly support the use of up-to-date accident investigation and prevention techniques to identify small remedial measures that can yield large accident savings. Training courses in these techniques are run by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Acci70W dents with the aid of grant from our Department. There is no doubt whatever that their efficient use is highly cost-effective, and I am delighted, therefore, to see that the Institution of Highway Engineers has published "Guidelines for Accident Reduction and Prevention in Highway Engineering" to assist local authorities in deploying them. I strongly commend this manual to local authorities.
