Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 10 November 2015
582. Deputy Jerry Buttimer asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the status of consultations with the National Transport Authority regarding the Vehicle Clamping Act 2015; when he expects the Act to be commenced; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39023/15]
View answerUnder the Vehicle Clamping Act 2015, the National Transport Authority (NTA) will be the national independent regulator for clamping activities wherever clamping is used as a means of parking control. My Department is in contact with the NTA concerning the resourcing requirements to enable the legislation to commence soon and to allow the new arrangements to operate effectively. Progress is being made on the resourcing requirements relating to the Act, which require the approval of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform.
