Written answers

The first report of the Criminal Justice Working Group, established following the publication of the Garda Síochána Inspectorate report into the Fixed Charge Processing System, will be submitted to Government in July and the progress made to date towards resolving the technical and administrative issues to allow for commencement of Section 44 of the Road Traffic Act 2010 will form part of that report. A sub-group of the Criminal Justice Working Group has been examining the issues to be addressed to give effect to Section 44 of the Road Traffic Act 2010, known as the 3rd payment option. The sub-group and the Working Group itself is identifying what changes to existing systems, including IT systems, and the practices and procedures of the Gardaí and the Courts Services are necessary so that this option can be implemented.
