My priorities for 2013, as set out on my Department's website, include the review of national aviation policy and of tourism policy. In addition, under the new Road Safety Strategy, policy reviews will be carried out on both drug driving legislation and speed limits.  Value for money and policy reviews will also be carried on national roads maintenance current expenditure and on the Green Schools Programme. In relation to the aviation policy review, a consultation paper was published in early March. The closing date for this consultation is 30th June.  I then intended to publish a draft policy statement later this year for further comment before finalising and adopting the new policy in early 2014.
