In September the Road Safety Authority (RSA) launched its proposals for the introduction of a graduated driver licensing (GDL) scheme. The Government is committed to the development of such a scheme under the Road Safety Strategy 2007-2012. The RSA is now proceeding with the preparation of roll-out of the various proposals. Many of the proposals in the scheme will require primary legislation, and it is my intention to publish a Road Traffic Bill to provide the necessary powers in 2011.
