I have referred the Deputy's question to the Garda authorities and they have supplied the following information by way of response. On 24 November 1993, at 1.10 a.m., gardaí, who were driving along North Circular Road, had their attention drawn to a Nissan 200 SX motor vehicle, bearing registration number 89 MN 767, which came towards them from Portland Street North. According to the Garda report, the Garda patrol car turned around and caught up with the other vehicle at the junction of North Circular Road and Russell Street where it had stopped.
