Two mothers who have organised a sleep out at the Dáil this evening want the government to lower speed limits in housing estates.
The Road Traffic amendment bill is due to be debated and voted on in the Dáil this week.
The mother of 6-year-old Jake Brennan - who died tragically after colliding with a car outside his home in Kilkenny last year - wants a change to happen.
