§ Mr. LazarowiczTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport what the(a) timetable and (b) scope are of the Government's review of the Road Safety Strategy; and who will be conducting the review. [126257]
§ Mr. JamiesonThe main objective of the review is to provide a realistic evaluation of progress on delivery of the Road Safety Strategy towards meeting the Government's 2010 casualty reduction targets. The review will therefore focus on implementation of the original strategy launched in March 2000 taking into account latest casualty trends, but will also assess new initiatives, problems or constraints that have emerged.
The review is being conducted by the Department, in consultation with the Road Safety Advisory Panel and with many of the individual partners, both within and outside Government, who play an active role in delivering the Strategy. The aim is to complete the review in spring 2004.
