As the Deputy will be aware, documentation containing specific allegations concerning the enforcement of road traffic legislation was forwarded by my Department to the Garda Commissioner. The Commissioner appointed an Assistant Commissioner to conduct an examination and to report on these allegations. I have now received the report from the Garda Commissioner of the examination into the allegations and this report is currently under consideration within my Department. I intend to bring the report to Government at the earliest opportunity and to publish the findings thereafter, including statistical information contained in the report.
