I asked this question earlier. Who is responsible for hacking hedges along a motorway? If the county council, the Government or some State agency is responsible, God help us in the free-for-all when it comes to other hedges.

I agree with everything Senators Grace O'Sullivan and Alice-Mary Higgins have said. The eye is off the ball. Bringing in the issue of road safety is crazy. Everybody knows that it has to do with speed and substances. Senator Grace O'Sullivan puts it well when she describes it as the destruction of who and what we are. I can see it every day, done by supposed agencies of the State. If it was a free-for-all engaged in by individuals, where would we be? I would like some clarification and security. My flip-flopping friends in Fianna Fáil might like it also.
