I propose to take Questions Nos. 185 and 186 together.

Under legislation, the Road Safety Authority has statutory responsibility for the operation of these tests. I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's query to the RSA for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response has not been received within ten days.
