Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

General Scheme of Road Traffic Bill 2015: Discussion

2:30 pm

Mr. Fintan Towey:

We do not have an agreement on the mutual recognition of penalty points. That is something that has been identified as an aspiration, but a lot of issues need to be resolved, including having comparability of offences, equivalent arrangements for the application of penalty points, and equivalent thresholds for disqualification. Therefore, there is a lot of work to be done on aligning the overall offences that we are dealing with.
