Question:

134. Deputy Bríd Smith asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will meet with representatives of driver instructors that are expected to be present at RSA centres to enable the use of their vehicles but that are afforded no facility to enter the buildings during the time of the test and in circumstances in which no waiting area is provided; and if he will request that the RSA take on board the concerns of this group and discuss the ongoing issues in relation to test centres with their representatives.

Written answers

Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

This is an operational matter for the Road Safety Authority and as Minister I have no role in this matter.

I have referred the matter to the RSA for direct reply, and I would ask that the Deputy contact my office directly if a response has not been received within 10 days.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 51.

Question No. 135 answered with Question No. 105.
