Minister of State at the Department of Transport

The Road Safety Authority is the body with statutory responsibility for the enforcement of commercial vehicle roadworthiness legislation. I have therefore referred the Deputy’s question to the Authority for direct reply.

I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response has not been received within ten days.
