Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

The issue does need to be tackled. I appreciate the Deputy raising this. We have to be careful too because we are also advocating for transport police. There is a danger that if we have multiple agencies, we would dilute the overall integration of An Garda Síochána. There has to be a balance in how we approach this. There has to be a dedicated traffic unit - there is one in An Garda Síochána - and there has to be strong co-ordination and co-operation with other agencies on safety.
