Michael McNamara

Question:

284. Deputy Michael McNamara asked the Minister for Transport the status of the proposed delivery of a new national care test, NCT, centre in Shannon, County Clare; if consideration is being given to the provision of a NCT centre in west County Clare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2418/22]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Transport (Deputy Hildegarde Naughton)

The operation of the National Car Test (NCT) service, including the allocation of resources, is the statutory responsibility of the Road Safety Authority. 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.

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