Written Answers. - Road Safety.
The operational period for the current five year road safety strategy will conclude at the end of the year.
The strategy has been the subject of ongoing monitoring by the high level group on road safety which has published a series of annual progress reports. The fourth progress report was published recently and covers developments up to end June 2002.
The high level group has now been tasked with the preparation of a new road safety strategy that will span the period 2003 to 2005. The immediate background to the development of the new road safety strategy will be a realisation of the achievements in meeting the targets set out in the current road safety strategy, a comprehensive review of that strategy, and the evolving developments in relation to the proposed EU third road safety action plan. The forthcoming strategy will include a detailed commentary on the current strategy and final progress report.
