If there were a rate of in excess of 80%, I might give Mr. Mullan some leeway. However, when the rate is only 6% or 7% it indicates that for some of the years on foot of a District Court order to surrender their licence, only 6% of those people actually surrendered their licence. While there can be some overlap with individuals reaching the threshold of penalty points and there can be issues under appeal or adjudication, the figure should not be that low.
