While my Department drafted the regulations doubling the penalties for parking on a footpath, bus lane or cycle track early last year, the enforcement of these penalties, along with the monitoring of the operational effectiveness of that enforcement, falls to local authority parking wardens and to An Garda Síochána. The Deputy may wish to bring his query to the direct attention of those bodies.
