PQ 132
132. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality his views that there is a need for more roadside breathalysers in view of the fact that gardaí have stated recently that on occasions they were unable to carry out a roadside test at a serious collision scene due to the fact that a breathalyser was not available within the requisite period set out, under section 9 of the Road Traffic Act 2010, that is where a person may be detained for up to one hour for an apparatus to be made available to carry out the roadside test; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
