Sir,

Speech by the Secretary for Transport in Legislative Council on 25 June 1986

Road Traffic (Driving-offence Points) (Amendment) Bill 1986

I move the second reading of the Road Traffic

(Driving-offence Points) (Amendment) Bill 1986.

As I mentioned when moving the second reading of

the Road Traffic (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 1986, a review

was undertaken on the legal and administrative framework

for dealing with speeding offences. As a result of this

review, a new escalating system of driving-offence points

is proposed, and the object of the Road Traffic

(Driving-offence Points) (Amendment) Bill 1986 is to

introduce such a system.
