Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport
Road Safety: Discussion
2:00 am
Mr. Keith Walsh:
That works on two levels in the case of the RSA. The RSA is an agency of the Department. Ultimately, therefore, it is responsible and accountable to the Minister for Transport. Obviously, the board of the RSA is involved in that process. Beyond the normal oversight of non-commercial State agencies like the RSA, there is also the road safety leadership group, chaired by the Minister of State, Deputy Seán Canney. This group brings together representatives from all the agencies involved in road safety. Those involved are the CEOs of the agencies, the Garda assistant commissioner for roads policing and relevant departmental staff. We all report to the Minister on quarterly basis.
