Mr. Jamieson

Information on the blood alcohol levels of pedestrians is available for less than half of those who died in road accidents. The following table shows the percentage of fatally injured pedestrians aged 16 or over 100 mg/100 ml out of those for whom a blood alcohol level has been provided by the Coroners.

1 Includes Freight Grants awarded in 2002

2 Includes Freight Facilities Grants awarded in 2001.

Information on future spending on UK port infrastructure is not available. The Government do not initiate proposals for port development and considers applications from the ports themselves as and when they are submitted.
