269. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the position, by location, regarding waiting times for the national car test; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28013/15]
View answerThe Road Safety Authority (RSA) has overall responsibility for the operation and delivery of the National Car Testing Service. As a result of capacity enhancements put in place by the NCTS earlier this year, I understand that the vast majority of test centres have either no waiting list or a very short one.
However, the statistics relating to NCT waiting times by location are a matter for the RSA and I have therefore referred the Deputy's Question to the Authority for direct reply. Please advise my Office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
