Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 March 2023
260. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Transport if a driving test can be expedited for a person (details supplied) in County Donegal for employment purposes; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [12852/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe operation of the national driving test service is the statutory responsibility of the Road Safety Authority (RSA), this includes the scheduling of driving tests. Neither I nor my department have the power to intervene in individual cases.
Therefore, I have referred the question to the Authority for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response has not been received within ten days. I would note that the RSA does provide for requests for urgent test dates for certain emergency workers.
