I met with representatives of the PARC group on 27 February 2008. The principal issue discussed was the proposed amendment to Road Traffic legislation to make it mandatory for drivers involved in collisions to be tested for alcohol consumption subject to medical circumstances. I confirmed that this issue would be included in a Road Traffic Bill that I will be progressing in the latter half of this year.
