Questions (1718)

Emer Currie

Question:

1718. Deputy Emer Currie asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration the procedure used by the Courts Service to inform drivers of the requirement to surrender their licence to the Road Safety Authority following a court disqualification; the procedure used to identify a driver to contact, when their unique driver number has not been captured in court. [1142/26]

Written answers

The management of the courts, operational matters and logistical functions are the responsibility of the judiciary and Courts Service, which are independent in exercising their functions under the Courts Service Act 1998 and given the separation of powers in the Constitution. As Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration I have no role in these matters.

To be of assistance, I have referred the Deputy's question to the Courts Service for direct reply. The Courts Service also has a dedicated email address for the provision of information to members of the Houses of the Oireachtas: oireachtasenquiries@courts.ie.
