Jerry Cowley (Mayo, Independent)

I wish to seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the need for mandatory drug testing for all perpetrators of serious and fatal road accidents and to debate the failure of the Government to act on the main recommendation of the Tánaiste's commissioned public safety report in 2002, namely, the establishment of an office of public safety regulation to take overall responsibility for public safety, in view of the serious failure of any public authority to take responsibility for public safety, including road accidents due to road conditions for which no one is apparently responsible.
