Will the Leader ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform to introduce what the AGSI is seeking, namely a transport unit that could examine the roadworthiness of both trucks and cars. The Garda is not able to do this at the moment. How often have the members, while driving under the speed limit, been overtaken by what one would call a bone shaker, with the front and back wheels rattling? The Garda Síochána is not in a position to implement that element of road safety because it is being forced to deliver a certain number of summons by the Government.
