Minister of State at the Department of Transport

I wish to advise that that all enquiries related to driver licensing are handled by the National Driver Licence Service, provision of which is delegated under national legislation to the Road Safety Authority. Neither I nor the Department have any role in individual driving licence applications.

I have referred this matter to the Authority for direct reply. Please contact my office if you have not received a reply within 10 days.

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