I intend to legislate for the regulation of e-scooters in accordance with the Programme for Government. This will involve identifying and developing appropriate amendments to primary road traffic legislation across a range of complex areas. The work must be carried out in such a way so that it does not undermine the overall framework of road traffic law or road safety in general.

The Government's current legislative priorities are the necessary measures to manage Covid 19 and to address its social and economic consequences.
