209 Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason section 63 of the Road Traffic Act 2010 in relation to the presentation of licences in court has not come into effect; if he will confirm that more than 100,000 penalty points have not been applied to licences due to this loophole; if 96% of drivers who are before the courts due to traffic offences do not present their licence to the court; if this is the reason that so few drivers have reached 12 penalty points; if the resolution of this matter has taken so long due to the deficiencies in the information technology system of the Garda Síochána; if this loophole will be closed in October 2011; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
