Written answers

Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

The operation of inspections on articulated trucks and all other commercial vehicles is a matter for the Road Safety Authority (RSA).

I have referred the Deputy's question to the RSA for direct reply and I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a reply has not been received within ten days.
