251 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government if he will amend the Road Traffic Act, 1971, to exclude the need for power wheelchairs to be covered by third party insurance. [18591/99]
I have no proposals to amend the Road Traffic Act, 1961, to exclude mechanically propelled wheelchairs from the compulsory insurance required under that Act.
