Martin Conway (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I would be inclined to agree with Senator O'Neill. Having said that, I totally understand Senator Power's motivation for tabling her amendment, especially given the recent history of NCTs. If the Minister was to commit, at a date in January, to issue a report to the media or even lay it before the Houses, not requiring this as an amendment in the legislation, it would be welcome not just by Members of the House but by people in general.

When the Minister responds I hope he will tell me what is the story with people who do an NCT but believe they have not been fairly treated and their car should have passed. Perhaps there is some reason or whatever----
