Vol. 475 No. 8
112 Mr. N. Treacy asked the Minister for the Environment the occasions when on-the-spot fines are currently used; the plans, if any, she has to extend their use for breaches of the speed limit and other minor road traffic offences; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6269/97]
On-the-spot fines already apply to parking offences, offences involving speed limits, and the offences of non-display of a current tax disc, non-display of an insurance disc, and the overloading of a vehicle.
The question of extending the system to other traffic offences is being considered, in consultation with the Department of Justice.
