AQW 53861 22-27 – Drug driving laws

Mr Patsy McGlone (Mid Ulster): To ask the Minister for Infrastructure to detail any steps she is taking to address drug driving.

Minister for Infrastructure: Drug driving poses very real dangers to all road users and is an increasing threat. I announced during oral questions on 22 September that it is my intention to launch a consultation on modernising the North’s drug driving laws. This will launch shortly and the proposals are about creating a modern and effective framework for tackling drug driving and improving safety for everyone who uses our roads.
