Noel Dempsey (Meath West, Fianna Fail)

I do not wish to be discourteous to the Deputy. As he indicated, he is new in the House and unfamiliar with its procedures. I assure him that, in the context of the move to barrier-free tolling, the National Roads Authority intends to examine all the by-laws on tolling, including those relating to disabled drivers. I will convey the Deputy's views on the matter to the NRA. It is clear, however, that significant problems would arise if one were to exempt people who do not have a specially adapted car or are not officially registered as disabled.
