​The statutory responsibility for testing, approval and supply of devices for preliminary drug testing rests with the Medical Bureau of Road Safety.  I have therefore referred the Question to the Bureau for direct reply.  I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response has not been received within ten days.
