Mr. Ryan
Twelve orders, regulations and bye-laws have been made under the Road Traffic Act, 1961, and particulars of them will be given in the first annual statement which will indicate not only the orders, etc., made under the 1961 Act, but also those made under the 1933 Act which still apply. This statement will be published in the near future.
Regulations on three further subjects are at present being prepared. Regulations on other matters will follow in due course. The making of bye-laws under the Act is a matter for the Commissioner of the Garda Síochána and there are no such bye-laws before me for my consent. However, as I announced in my Estimates speech, a number of these are under consideration by the Commissioner at present, and it is expected that parking bye-laws relating to Dublin city and county will be submitted in the near future.
