I propose to take Questions Nos. 259 to 264, inclusive, together.
I understand that persons involved in road traffic collisions, their legal advisers or insurers or other interested parties may, on written request, be supplied with an abstract of the Garda report in respect of the collision, copies of statements of witnesses and sketches or maps of the scene.
I have asked the Garda Commissioner for the specific information requested and when it is to hand I will inform the Deputy accordingly.
