HC Deb 28 January 1987 vol 109 cc254-5W
Mr. Coombs

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will consider the compulsory re-testing of all drivers convicted of drunken or reckless driving.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

The possible wider application of retraining programme and driving tests for a range of traffic offences, including drinking and driving and reckless driving, is being considered by the Road Traffic Law Review, under the independent chairmanship of Dr. Peter North. The review's report is expected within the next few months.
