The safety of the public is of paramount importance at this time and as in all aspects of the Covid-19 crisis my Department continues to be guided by National Public Health Emergency Team and the relevant national experts in relation to the resumption of services.

I am pleased to confirm the phased re-opening of National Car Testing (NCT) centres from Monday 8 June in line with Phase 2 of the Government Roadmap for easing Covid 19 restrictions and the National Return to Work Safely Protocol published by Government, as agreed by employers and workers.

Initially, centres will open on a limited basis and testing will be by appointment only. Further information is available on the relevant websites www.rsa.ie and www.ncts.ie.
