Paddy Burke (Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 25:

In page 56, between lines 12 and 13, to insert the following new paragraph:

"(h) requirements to avoid accidental obstruction of railway infrastructure by road vehicles by establishing-

(i) criteria for the apportionment of responsibility and cost of improvements to be made at locations where roads meet, cross or run close to railways,

(ii) guidelines on enhanced risk assessments and physical measures to reduce risk of vehicles accidentally leaving the road and obstructing railway infrastructure,

(iii) reporting mechanisms to identify relevant information on incidents involving vehicles, which obstruct railway infrastructure,".

Could the Minister of State give us his opinion on this amendment?
