Deputy Aindrias Moynihan asked the Minister for Transport the number of people waiting on driving tests in each licence category, in each of Ballincollig, Killarney, Mallow, Cork, Skibbereen and Newcastlewest test centres, in tabular form; the plans to increase test capacity at these centres; if plans to clear backlogs are on target; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 154 and 160 together.
The operation of the national driving test service is the statutory responsibility of the Road Safety Authority and the information requested is held by them. I have therefore referred the Questions to the Authority for direct reply. I would ask the Deputies 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
