The programme for Government contains a clear commitment to finally solve the issue of the illegal use of scrambler bikes. This week, Deputy Lahart and I submitted a Private Members' Bill to the Ceann Comhairle's office to deal with some of those legislative changes. This matter involves a number of Ministers and Departments. I ask the Tánaiste not only to look at that Bill but also to look at the non-legislative elements required to resolve the issue and to have a whole-of-government response to it.

We will definitely do that. This is a running sore and a hot issue in the Deputy's constituency and mine, where people have been demanding proper regulation in respect of scramblers and quad bikes for quite some time. On multiple occasions, the Garda has indicated that the laws in place are sufficient, but people on the ground are telling us a very different story. We are determined to do something to improve the situation and that will involve the Departments of Transport and Justice and other Departments..
