Written answers

I have deferred a decision on the introduction of a vehicle height until I have the opportunity to consider the views of all parties with interests or concerns in the matter. In this regard, on 23 December 2004 I published a consultative paper outlining the central issues involved in this matter. Notices in the national newspapers of 23 December 2004 invited interested parties and the public to submit their views on the issues discussed in the consultative paper to my Department by 28 January 2005. The consultative paper and accompanying documentation are available from the Department's website at www.transport.ie.
