Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 29 May 2018
508. Deputy John Curran asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will consider running an RSA safety campaign during the summer months in view of the increased prevalence of scrambler and quad bikes in local parks; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [23712/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs safety campaigns are a matter for the Road Safety Authority (RSA), I have referred the question to the Authority for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response is not received within 10 days.
However, I would also note that the RSA's remit covers only road safety and does not extend to recreational activities in other locations, such as public spaces or local parks, which are not on the public - or indeed private - roads.
