Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 30 January 2024
183. Deputy Patrick Costello asked the Minister for Transport if he will direct the RSA to implement a cancellation list in all of its driving testing centres; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3759/24]
View answerUnder the Road Safety Authority Act 2006, the Road Safety Authority (RSA) has statutory responsibility for the National Driver Testing Service, including scheduling and appointments.
I am informed that in October 2023, to further assist with reducing waiting times, the RSA made a change to the system to allow any unused slots to be made available for anyone to take up at short notice. If a driving test is cancelled at short notice, the RSA now make this appointment available to the general public via MyRoadSafety portal.
