Question:

292. Deputy Claire Kerrane asked the Minister for Transport if he will consider opening a driver test centre in Ballinasloe, County Galway given the backlog of tests and its proximity to a number of counties [41462/22]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Transport

The operation of the national driving test service is the statutory responsibility of the Road Safety Authority. This is an operational matter for the Road Safety Authority. I have therefore referred this 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
