I refer the Deputy to my reply to Question No. 164 of 12 February 2004.
Theory tests are conducted in Castlerea, County Roscommon. Testing conducted in the Carrick-on-Shannon, Longford and Athlone testing centres, which are adjacent to the county, also covers the general area of County Roscommon. Accordingly, I understand that the mobile theory testing unit does not visit Roscommon town.
Theory test appointments are arranged by the driver theory testing service and not by my Department. The service may be contacted at LoCall number 1890606106 regarding details of test arrangements.
A key performance standard contained in the customer charter for the driver theory testing service is that tests are to be offered at centres undertaking more than 250 tests per annum within two weeks of a candidate's preferred date.
