501. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government his views on the accuracy and effectiveness of a system (details supplied) used for predicting traffic changes for proposed developments; if his attention has been drawn to concerns raised by community groups and persons regarding the effectiveness of this system; the number of local authorities that use or recognise this system; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

My Department has no involvement in the operation of this system. Traffic management is a matter for local authorities and therefore, not proper to this Department. The Department has not had any feedback from local authorities on Traffic or Transport Assessments or on TRICS.
