Amharc ar fhreagraIn all instances where driving licences are surrendered to a licensing authority, at the end of the period of disqualification matters regarding the return of the driving licence are appropriate to the relevant licensing authority. In accordance with Section 3(2) of the Road Traffic Act 2002 my Department issues a notice to the relevant drivers on the ending of the period of disqualification and of the removal of the penalty points from the records on the NVDF system.
