This is disturbing because Mr. Doyle comes in with his 2015 annual report, which refers to this project, yet here we are in 2017 and he says it could take two years. That is not a satisfactory arrangement in terms of road safety issues. I have to start at the beginning because Mr. Doyle has told me that he has not solved this problem at all. The problem today is as acute as it was before he looked at it a few years ago, and it has not yet been sorted. I mentioned a lot of different databases in the system that do not talk to each other and that is still the case. For the benefit of the public, can Mr. Doyle explain fixed charge notices versus penalty points? A driver gets penalty points, but there are also get fixed-charge notices and these are separate from penalty points. Are they on-the-spot fines? Can Mr. Doyle explain who gets what?
