Dublin 15-mile hauling limit

Summary

McCreevy said the limit caused hardship for hauliers and firms operating beyond Dublin’s 15-mile radius and asked for it to be revised. The Minister said he was considering all aspects; the Ceann Comhairle treated this as a separate question.

With regard to the 15-mile radius of Dublin limit does the Minister not feel that this is causing hardship to certain hauliers and firms? I am thinking of firms such as Roadstone, Readymix and so on. If they go outside the radius they are in contravention of the law and this is causing unnecessary hardship. Would the Minister consider revising the regulations in this respect?

That is a separate question and does not relate to any of the other questions.

It relates to question No. 15.

I will be concerning myself with all aspects. What my decisions ultimately will be is another matter.
