Under 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. Given the RSA's responsibility in this matter, I have referred the Deputy's question to the RSA for direct response. Please contact my office if a reply is not received within ten days.

Pending this response, the Deputy may wish to note that the RSA publish detailed monthly information on the driver testing service since 2021 on the CSO website. This information is available at the following link: data.cso.ie/table/ROA37

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Orders.
