HC Deb 22 February 1988 vol 128 c6W
Sir Ian Lloyd

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will issue guidelines for chief constables to the effect that they should encourage the voluntary introduction an use of wall-mounted coin-in-the-slot breathalysers and breathalyser ignition locks; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

The clear message must be that drinking and driving do not mix. We welcome the way in which chief officers are helping to get this message across but are not convinced that their efforts would be assisted by asking them to encourage the use of self-testing devices.
