I echo Deputy McAuliffe's point. This is part of a long process. It has taken a long time because it is complex legislation. It has so many different aspects.

I absolutely accept what the Deputy said about the use of scramblers, which relates to an earlier section. This is a real issue for communities across this country and across Dublin city. I commend members of Deputy McAuliffe's community in Finglas who have been involved in trying to highlight and address the problem. I am glad we will be able, subject to it being agreed today, to get the President to sign it and then, as the Deputy says, to put it into action to protect our people. I agree with the Deputy.

The amendment relates to powered personal transporters. It creates a new category of vehicles, which includes e-scooters.
