HC Deb 13 January 1993 vol 216 c733W
Mr. Clifton-Brown

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport whether he has completed his review of the criteria for setting speed limits; and when he expects to publish his policy document on speed.

Mr. Kenneth Carlisle

We have today published a new circular—roads l/93—on the criteria for setting speed limits, which offers greater flexibility in setting speed limits, and a policy document "Killing Speed and Saving Lives". Both these documents make a significant contribution to the process of reducing actual speeds and casualties. Copies of both have been placed in the Library of the House.
