I move amendment No. 22:

In page 15, after line 48, to insert the following:

"(4) Where the outcome of testing under this section indicates that the person is incapable of having proper control of a vehicle, that outcome shall be evidence in a prosecution under section 4(1).".

I propose to add an additional provision to tie in the preliminary testing in order that it can be used as evidence in the prosecution. From what the Minister said, he believes it will be problematic. I do not know if he thought about the formula I have in the amendment.
