Road Traffic Bill 2006: Committee Stage.
12:00 pm
Pat Gallagher (Donegal South West, Fianna Fail)
I will give the matter some thought. In particular, I will consider the point at which an individual should be made aware of this provision. I refer to a person who has been found, after being tested on the side of the road and further evidential tests, to be under the level of 100 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood. It would be somewhat impractical for the State to be responsible for this. However, I favour such information being included on the written notice or at another stage. People should be cautioned in this regard or, at least, the point should be highlighted for them. I will consider this issue and will come back to the Senator.
