Noel Dempsey (Meath West, Fianna Fail)

These provisions relate to fixed-charge notices and serving of those notices in respect of road traffic offences. Section 35 - subsection (3) in particular - provides for the manner in which a notice may be served. That procedure is also reflected in section 29 where a notice is served in respect of drink driving offences. These amendments do not alter the integrity of the relevant subsection as passed in the Dáil but simply adjust the layout of the wording to enhance the comprehensibility of the provisions as well as providing consistency in wording across all related sections.
