Question:

161. Deputy Kathleen Funchion asked the Minister for Transport if a driving test will be expedited for a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10212/24]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Transport

Under the Road Safety Authority Act 2006, the Road Safety Authority (RSA) has statutory responsibility for the National Driver Testing Service. This includes all application and scheduling matters, and neither I nor my Department have the power to intervene in individual cases.

As such, I have referred the question to the Authority for direct reply on the specific issue raised. 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.
