We are still awaiting legislation on the varying of the speed limits on the M50, something which TII has said will help with traffic congestion in our capital city. It would be far better if the Minister for Justice and Equality took full responsibility for this legislation, told the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport to butt out and to do the job which he was given the seal of office to do, withdrew this Bill and did it properly in order that we could have robust legislation. Let the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport come into this House and deal with a Bill he has been trying to bring through the House for the best part of 18 months but has been unable to, namely, the drink-driving legislation he initiated in February last year. If he cannot bring his own legislation through the Dáil, the Minister for Justice and Equality should not let that Minister bring him down in respect of his own legislation.
