I apologise for not being present earlier but I was attending Question Time in the Dáil. I wish to raise the requirement for a driver to carry his driving licence when driving a vehicle.

This is a problem I have had myself, as have others like me. A person may jump into a van and leave their licence in the van, forgetting to take it if they go on to a machine or a tractor.
