Michael Bell
Question:663 Mr. Bell asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the measures, if any, he proposes to take to make out of state drivers amenable to the speed limit laws in view of the fact that approximately 40% of speeding fines in the Louth and Meath divisions were issued to such drivers and many fined could not be subsequently traced or could not be further pursued under existing arrangements; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that similar problems have arisen over many years in civil cases involving damage to private motor vehicles and property; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
