256. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason the members of the Road Safety Authority driver CPC review groups which sat in 2013 were overlooked at the RSA Leading Light Awards in both 2013 and 2014, when a precedent had been set in 2012 when members of the RSA driver CPC groups, prior to that, received special recognition awards at the Leading Light ceremony for their voluntary efforts in sitting on the review committees.

The Leading Lights in Road Safety Awards are organised and presented by the Road Safety Authority to celebrate the outstanding efforts of people to improve road safety in their communities. Neither I nor my Department has any role in the operation of the system or in the selection of Award recipients.

I have referred the Deputy's question to the Authority for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response has not been received within ten days.
