Earlier this year, I announced that a review of speed limits would be undertaken and to that end, my Department established a stakeholder group to progress this work.
The Automobile Association, An Garda Síochána, the Road Safety Authority, the National Roads Authority, the National Transport Authority and representatives of local authorities accepted my invitation to participate in the Working Group. The work of the Group is on-going and I expect to receive their report by the end of the year.
I will give careful consideration to implementing any recommendations contained in their Report.
