To ask the Scottish Executive whether it will highlight in its road safety campaigns difficulties caused by diesel spills.
Answer
The Scottish Executive provides funds to the Scottish Road Safety Campaign for the production of key road safety education initiatives and publicity campaigns. The campaign's business plan for 2002-03 includes publicity on major causes of road accident fatalities and serious injuries such as speeding, drink driving and drug driving. There are no plans for a campaign on difficulties caused by oil or diesel spills. Out of a total of 14,707 injury road accidents in Scotland in 2001, there were 33 accidents, including one fatal, in which the presence of oil or diesel on the road was recorded. This represents 0.2% of injury accidents.Copies of the business plan are available in the Parliament's Reference Centre (Bib. number 21011).
