May I ask two further questions? Let me put everything in context.

I am a strong supporter of the road safety strategy and having speed checks on roads. Members will have heard me make reference to two points at a number of meetings. I do not understand the rationale for why there is a speed van as you head eastbound into the Jack Lynch tunnel in Cork. The second issue is in coming out of the tunnel heading westbound. Here is where I have a fundamental difficulty. I hope that after this meeting the witnesses will have a discussion about road signage around construction and temporary speed signs or temporary speed areas. I am not sure if the witnesses are familiar with coming out of the Jack Lynch tunnel.
