Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 16 July 2015
830. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport his views on a matter (details supplied) regarding speed limit restrictions in County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29884/15]
View answerSection 10 of the Road Traffic Act 2004 provides the legislative basis under which a "road works speed limit order" may be applied by a county or city council manager to a road, motorway or part of such a road in their administrative area. Under section 10, "road works speed limit orders" cannot be made in respect or a national road or motorway without the prior written consent of the National Roads Authority.
I have no function in the matter referred to.
