Question 445: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the length of time it will take to reprogramme the PULSE system to ensure that road traffic summons in respect of alleged speeding offences arising from hand-held speed detectors make reference to section 15 of Road Traffic Act 2004.

I am informed by the Garda authorities that they have sought a legal opinion regarding the wording of summons for alleged speeding offences and the reference to section 15 of the Road Traffic Act 2004. On receipt of that legal opinion, the Garda Síochána will be able to make a determination on the impact, if any, on the PULSE system. Should changes be required to the offence wording on the PULSE computer system, I am advised that they can be implemented within two working days of the receipt of the approved version.
