Patrick O'Donovan (Limerick, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

All I want is that an examination be carried out and that people be tested on the area they service. Nobody in Abbeyfeale would have an issue with being examined on the geography of Duagh, Knocknagoshel, Finuge, Lixnaw or Ballylongford but they would have a major grievance being asked about places such as Oola, Pallasgreen, Kilbehenny and Mitchelstown which are nowhere near their functional area and in which they will never serve. They will never pick up a fare in the Square in Abbeyfeale or be telephoned and asked to take a person to Doon. Nobody will do that.
