I fully support the greatest possible use of all measures which would help reduce the rate of death and serious injuries on our roads.

My colleague, the Minister for Transport, who has responsibility for road traffic legislation, is currently considering the issues which would be involved in the introduction of random road breath testing in consultation with, inter alia, the Attorney General, myself and the Garda Síochána.
