asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list by counties and cities in Scotland the number of persons convicted of inability to drive through drink or drugs for each of the last three years.

Figures for the last three years available of the number of persons convicted in Scotland of driving while incapacitated by drink or drugs are:—

1962	2,780
1963	3,042
1964	3,256

A geographical breakdown of these figures could not be made without undue work. The following table gives, by police areas, the number of cases in which proceedings for this offence were taken:
