Martin Cullen

Minister for Transport (Mr. Cullen)

I propose to take Question Nos. 190 to 193, inclusive, together.

The information sought by the Deputy on driving tests scheduled and conducted and for the number of driver testers assigned to test centres for the period 1 January 2004 to 27 May 2005 is not readily available in the format requested for the period in question. The information is being compiled and will be sent to the Deputy as soon as possible.

Table 1 sets out details of tests scheduled at each test centre between 30 May 2005 and 2 July 2005. Table 2 sets out details of testers assigned for the same period. This covers the period for which schedules are finalised at present.
