There is a lot to be said for Deputies who put down questions having preference but I have no authority to impose such a rule.

I put down the question last week and three people came in before me. Before I had an opportunity to ask a supplementary they had asked all the questions.

(Limerick East): Road traffic legislation is a matter for the Minister for the Environment. I understand legislative arrangements had been made for the display of discs but I am not in a position to give an answer about the state of play of that because it is not within my area of responsibility.
