Seamus Brennan
Ceist:107 Mr. S. Brennan asked the Minister for the Environment the plans, if any, there are to introduce R restricted driving licences similar to the system operating in Northern Ireland; whether this system has been examined by his Department; if he has satisfied himself with the current position whereby holders of provisional licences are not required to have a full licence holder travelling with them as used to be the case; the reason the original restriction banning provisional licence holders from driving on their own was changed; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
