Road Safety Authority

Conferral of functions on Authority.

37.— (1) The Minister may by order confer on the Authority such functions of the Minister under this Part (other than a power to make regulations) as the Minister specifies in the order and, accordingly, a reference to the Minister in a provision so specified or connected with it includes a reference to the Authority.

(2) Every function of the Minister conferred on the Authority continues to be vested in the Minister, but is so vested concurrently with the Authority and the Minister so as to be capable of being exercised or performed by either of them.

(3) Every order made by the Minister under this section shall be laid before each House of the Oireachtas as soon as may be after it is made and, if a resolution annulling the order is passed by either such House within the next 21 days on which that House has sat after the order is laid before it, the order shall be annulled accordingly.
