Are we satisfied that the failure to produce driving licences has been fully addressed? It was still in the ether, certainly in the term of office of the Minister's immediate predecessor, Deputy Leo Varadkar, when about 40% of offences, at one stage, were alleged to have been committed by people who were not licensed at all, but they pretended not to be so as to escape the system. I accept the Minister's assurance if that has been addressed. That was the problem in recent times. It is a great step forward for road safety. On that basis I will not press the amendment.
