Vol. 202 No. 12

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Castleknock (Dublin) Speed Limit.

12.

asked the Minister for Local Government if he has yet decided to accede to the request of Dublin County Council, and of the residents of Castleknock, to have a thirty mile per hour speed limit for that village.

Prior to the making of the Road Traffic (Speed Limits) Regulations, 1963, neither the technical committee set up in County Dublin to consider the application of the speed limits nor the county council (to whom the committee reported) recommended that a speed limit should be introduced at Castleknock. However, representations regarding the case have since reached me from the county council. They were advised that the matter can be considered when the first review of the regulations takes place. I have already indicated in reply to previous questions that this review will commence at the end of the year, after the existing regulations have been given a period of trial.
