Question:

279. Deputy Niamh Smyth asked the Minister for Transport if a driving test for a person (details supplied) will be brought forward; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17002/23]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Transport

The Road Safety Authority (RSA) has statutory responsibility for all aspects of the National Driving Test service. This includes test applications and scheduling matters. Neither I nor my Department has access, nor the power, to intervene in individual cases.

Therefore I have 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
