Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 2 October 2025
248. Deputy Emer Currie asked the Minister for Transport if he will introduce a mandatory requirement on drivers disqualified in court to present their licence or permit, to the court clerk on disqualification, in order for the unique driver number to be recorded; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [52837/25]
View answerAs Minister of State for International & Road Transport, Logistics, Rail & Ports, I wish to advise that section 22 of the Road Traffic Act 2002, as amended, provides that, where a person is charged in court with a road traffic offence, other than for specified exceptions, they are required to produce their driving licence or learner permit to a court official. The Court shall record whether or not the licence or permit was produced and, where it was produced, the details specified on it.
