Question
What assessment has the Minister made of the impact of the new 20mph speed limits on ambulance response times?
Answer
Answered by Deputy Minister for Climate Change
Police, fire and ambulance services are allowed to exceed speed limits during their emergency response duties, and this will not change when the default speed limit on restricted roads becomes 20mph.
