I am informed by the Garda authorities that the Department of Transport, on the written request of a Chief Superintendent, may remove penalty points from a driving licence in circumstances including where the individual named on the notification to the Minister for Transport was not the person who committed the offence or two notifications to the Minister for Transport were issued in respect of the same offence.
