I refer the Deputy to Parliamentary Question No. 119 of 5 April 2017 wherein I indicated my understanding that the Medical Bureau of Road Safety (MBRS) purchase breath testing equipment. The Deputy will be aware that the MBRS falls within the remit of my colleague, the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Mr. Shane Ross, T.D.
The position remains unchanged.
My reply to Parliamentary Question No. 119 of 5 April 2017 was as follows:
I am informed by the Garda authorities that the Medical Bureau of Road Safety (MBRS) purchase breath testing equipment. The MBRS falls within the remit of my colleague, the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Mr. Shane Ross, T.D. To be of assistance, my Department will make arrangements for the MBRS to respond to the Deputy's question directly.
