Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many families of victims of driving offences his Department has met and consulted during its review of driving offences.

The Government’s examination of driving offences and penalties is ongoing and will involve taking the views of a number of victims, and families of victims of serious driving offences. I have plans to meet some victims’ families and representative groups over the coming weeks and would be happy to meet with the families of Stefan Bowdley and Alex Reed.
