Dr. Keith Walsh:

Part of this is that we would always take advice from the RSA on technical areas where it has the expertise. The Department may need to change legislation but there is also an EU element to a lot of this. For a lot of vehicle standards, the law actually comes from EU directives and regulations. That is why it is particularly interesting to hear about things that are happening in Sweden and other member states. I was in Belgium last week for a conference on self-driving cars and safety developments.
