Road Safety Bill [HL]

The Minister must be the only person in the country who thinks that not everybody who is fined after being detected by a speed camera believes that they are for raising revenue. I have never heard anybody say anything different. I do not think that we will do much to dent that view, which is held very firmly by everybody. In fact, we might, to some extent, make a virtue out of it if people recognised something with a road safety application that had been provided in the local authority area by such money. I sense a fair amount of support in the Committee for our proposal. I can see that the Minister will not be persuaded tonight, but it is very possible that we may try again to persuade him. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 135 not moved.]
