answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>The Department has not made a formal assessment of the effectiveness of the rigorous enforcement and serious penalties for drink drivers; nor of the trends in the level of breath tests performed between 2011 and 2015. However, the Department has already introduced further measures to tackle drink drivers. Since 2015, repeat drink drivers must medically prove they are not alcohol dependent before getting their licence back, and the right to blood testing was removed for drivers who narrowly fail breathalyser tests. A £350,000 competition announced in June to develop a new mobile evidential breathalyser for the police has also been completed; winning entries are currently being assessed.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 20/11/2018 15:59:41 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
