175. Deputy Pa Daly asked the Minister for Transport the waiting list for driving test applications; the number of driving testers; the waiting list for HGV tests; the number of driving tests taken; the number of HGV driving tests taken in 2020 to 2025, by month in the past 24 months, by test centre, and by county, in tabular form.

View answerUnder the Road Safety Authority Act 2006, the Road Safety Authority (RSA) has statutory responsibility for the National Driver Testing Service, including all testing and scheduling matters. Accordingly, the information requested is held by the RSA.
Given the RSA's responsibility in this matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the RSA for direct, detailed response. Please contact my office if a reply is not received within ten days.
The Deputy may wish to note that the RSA publish detailed monthly information on the driver testing service on the CSO website, including the breakdown of waiting times and distribution of testing capacity by test centre.
