Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the recommendations of the report of the Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety Locking out the Drink Driver, published March 2021; and what assessment they have made of the use of alcohol interlocks in other countries.

The Government has taken note of the research and the report published by the Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety which was funded by a grant from the Department for Transport.

We are considering a range of policies under the new Road Safety Strategy; the first for ten years. This includes the case for changing the motoring offences, such as drink driving.
