Statistics relating to penalty points are a matter for my colleague the Minister for Transport. I am informed by the Garda authorities that statistics relating to detections for exceeding the temporary speed limit at the location mentioned are not readily available and could only be obtained by the expenditure of a disproportionate amount of Garda time and resources, which could not be justified in the circumstances.
