Mr. Sims
asked the Secretary of State for Transport if, in the light of the information supplied to him by the hon. Member for Chislehurst, he has anything to add to his statement of 2 February, Official Report at column 675, regarding the percentage of road accidents attributable to drinking and driving.
Mr. Moore
In my statement of 2 February I was reported as saying at column 675 that 95 per cent. of accidents in this country involved drinking and driving. That figure is incorrect. 25 per cent. of all road deaths are alcohol-related. I have asked for the Official Report to be corrected.
