101. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality further to Parliamentary Question No. 567 of 13 May 2014, if she will provide an update on the consultation taking place between the Courts Service and An Garda Síochána regarding notifications being made by the courts to members of An Garda Síochána of incidents of non-compliance with section 22 of the Road Traffic Act 2002, as amended, by offenders appearing in court charged with road traffic offences who fail to provide their driving licences at court appearances.

The Deputy will be aware that the Courts Service have been examining a mechanism for notifying An Garda Síochána of instances of non-compliance with this provision. I am informed by the Courts Service that discussions with An Garda Síochána are expected to take place in the near future concerning the particular arrangements required to be put in place.
