I thank both of you. I apologise for rushing at the end. It has been a very informative meeting and it has clarified many issues and facts where different ideas were in circulation with the media. I thank both of you for the work you are doing to reduce fatalities on the road and increase convictions. As members, we join with you in that and wish you well on it. The best Christmas present that every family in Ireland could have is a safe Christmas. Hopefully that will happen, with the public and all of you working for it.
