I have said in the House a number of times that there is a very serious public safety issue with the use of rickshaws as a form of public transport in Dublin and elsewhere. I have also asked for their regulation and at one point the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Ross, even suggested their possible prohibition. He has since indicated that he has received legal advice from the Attorney General to the effect that there would be a difficulty with prohibiting rickshaws, but he is open to regulating their use and will introduce an amendment to the Taxi Regulation Act 2013 to do so. When will the relevant legislation come forward? Is it possible to share the legal advice given to the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport regarding the proposed prohibition of rickshaws?

I cannot answer that question because, as the Deputy is well aware, the Attorney General gives advice to Cabinet which is not shared. The Deputy will have to take the Minister's word on the matter on this occasion. The Minister is prepared to do the regulations and they will be prepared for inclusion in the Bill. While the legislation is not on the priority list, it is on the programme list. I suggest it will probably be coming up in the next couple of months.
