Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 24 February 2021
127. Deputy Jennifer Carroll MacNeill asked the Minister for Transport if an NDLS receipt for a driver licence renewal will be acceptable in lieu of the licence, given the extensive backlog as a result of Covid-19; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10149/21]
Amharc ar fhreagraA receipt issued from the National Driver Licence Service (NDLS) for an application received for a driving licence or learner permit is not acceptable in lieu of the permit or licence.
Due to the resurgence of Covid-19 in Europe as well as Ireland, possible further extensions of driving licences are currently under consideration at EU level. A decision on this issue is expected shortly.
