The alcolocks system has been costed and it would be totally impractical to implement it in existing vehicles. It would be fine to apply it to new vehicles.

A Deputy made a statement earlier that thousands were telling lies about fixed penalty point notices every week. Any person or politician who would make a statement at an Oireachtas committee that thousands of people are telling lies every week and has that information should go to An Garda Síochána who will deal with the matter. One cannot make such a sweeping statement.
