STEER CLEAR CAMPAIGN

Early day motion 486, tabled 15 December 2009 by Mike Hancock (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 19 members.

That this House commends the Steer Clear campaign, which encourages all seasonal revellers either to leave their car at home or to appoint a designated driver; furthermore congratulates the Portsmouth News for promoting the campaign, and the 43 pubs that have already signed up, promising to offer a free soft drink to the designated driver in a group of four or more between 6pm and 9pm; encourages the setting up of these initiatives countrywide; and expresses the hope that schemes of this kind will be successful in reducing the level of drink-driving and drink-related road accidents.

Signatures by party: Labour 11, Liberal Democrat 6, Conservative 1, DUP 1.
