I propose to take Questions Nos. 332 and 333 together.
Data relating to the number of blood and urine specimens analysed in 2004 by the Medical Bureau of Road Safety and evidential breath specimens given in 2004 under section 17 of the Road Traffic Act 1994, in respect of persons arrested for drink driving offences, will be presented in the bureau's annual report for that year. That report will be published shortly.
