I propose to take Questions Nos. 159 and 160 together.

While my Department is responsible for the drafting of road traffic legislation, it has no role in enforcement or in the recording of enforcement statistics. As my Department does not hold the information sought by the Deputy, I would suggest that he bring his request to the direct attention of An Garda Síochána.

Question No. 160 answered with Question No. 159.
