View answer500. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will provide details, in tabular form and by national car test centre, of the number of persons waiting for a test and the maximum waiting time at each centre; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 488, 494 and 500 together.
The Road Safety Authority (RSA) has overall responsibility for the operation, oversight and delivery of the National Car Test and as such, statistics relating to NCT waiting times at test centres in general, or in a particular test centre, are a matter for the Authority.
I have therefore referred each of these Questions to the RSA for direct reply to the Deputies. Please advise my Office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
