question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether it is their policy that the Secretary of State for Transport shall decline to grant a Vehicle Special Order under section 44 of the Road Traffic Act 1988, for the purpose of carrying crane ballast weights, to an operator which does not have a green Operator Compliance Risk Score from the DVSA; and if not, whether they will review that policy.
tabling member printed	Earl Attlee
uin	HL1832
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/09/2016 answer text <p>The DVSA’s Operator Compliance Risk Score (OCRS) is a scheme that supports DVSA’s compliance monitoring for operators. In contrast Vehicle Special Orders in relation to the Special Types General Order (STGO) for abnormal loads are granted by the Secretary of State for Transport through Highways England.</p><p> </p><p>These two schemes are not connected or interdependent. The Compliance Risk Score does not form any part of the process for granting an application for a Vehicle Special Order. Both schemes are designed with specific requirements. We have no plans to change the process to make either scheme conditional on the other.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 21/09/2016 12:08:08 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they expect that data relating to the reduction in the maximum legal blood alcohol concentration levels for drivers in Scotland will be sufficient to inform a decision in respect of legal limits for drivers in England and Wales.
tabling member printed	Earl Attlee

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/06/2016 answer text <p>The Government has no plans to change the legal blood alcohol limit for driving in England and Wales. If and when an evaluation about the impact of the changed limit in Scotland is conducted we would of course consider it, however we believe that rigorous enforcement and serious penalties for drink drivers are a more effective deterrent than changing the drink driving limit.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 28/06/2016 10:39:49 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
