Written answers

Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

The operation of the driver testing service is the statutory responsibility of the Road Safety Authority, and I have no role in these matters.

I have therefore referred the Question to the Authority for direct reply.

I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response has not been received within ten days.

The referred reply under Standing Order 42A was forwarded to the Deputy.
