The controversial new 20mph speed limit in Wales will save lives and money, the First Minister has insisted, as he rejected calls to pause the rollout for residential roads.
Mark Drakeford said cutting speed from 30mph to 20mph would protect lives and claimed it would save the NHS in Wales £92 million a year.
TalkTV’s Ian Collins discusses Welsh Labour’s plans with Welsh political commentator and statistician Jamie Jenkins.
Ian: “This is Labour’s war on the motorist… We are arriving in a place of insanity!”
Jamie: “Absolute madness.”
Speaking at a Welsh Government press conference, the First Minister defended the £32 million cost and said it would save the NHS three times as much a year.
“This is a manifesto commitment of the Labour Party, and it was in our election manifesto,” Mr Drakeford said.
“Politicians are very often criticised for not keeping their promises and this is a promise that we will be keeping here in Wales.
“We will invest around £32 million in one-off expenditure and that one-off money will save £92 million every single year in the NHS.
“We will be paid back many, many times over for the investment that we are making.
“I’m reinforced in my belief that it is the right thing to do from the experience we see elsewhere in the world.
“Spain, which has had this policy in place over recent years, have seen a 20% reduction in urban deaths on the roads.”
