Written answers

The safety of the public is of paramount importance at this time and as in all aspects of the Covid-19 crisis my Department continues to be guided by National Public Health Emergency Team and the relevant national experts in relation to the resumption of services.

My officials and the Road Safety Authority (RSA) are currently examining the possibility and appropriate timing of resuming the range of services for which the RSA is responsible, in light of the roadmap recently published by Government and the National Return to Work Safely Protocol, as agreed by  employers and trade unions.

I hope to make further announcements in relation to these issues, subject to satisfactory progress in relation to public health, over the coming weeks.
