Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 24 March 2021
334. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Transport if the driver theory test will be made available online to address the large backlog in applications; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15243/21]
View answerIn response to a request by my Department, the RSA is working to deliver an online driver theory test service. The online service has been trialled on a pilot basis for those taking a theory test for trucks and buses and is now being evaluated with a view to extending the online service to all test types.
There will be a limit on the number of customers that can avail of the service during the initial rollout phase, but the objective is that it should be an option for all theory test customers during later phases of the rollout.
