I propose to take Questions Nos. 221 and 222 together.
I am informed by the Garda authorities that the details sought by the Deputy concerning the number of provisional drivers prosecuted who drove unaccompanied for the past two years and the number of provisional driving licence holders who were prosecuted for failure to display an "L" plate for the past two years are not readily available. It would require a disproportionate amount of Garda time to compile this information.
The overall number of prosecutions for driving licence offences, including the offences referred to by the Deputy, are set out in the following tabular statement.
