I will leave it so. While we are rightly addressing those issues that will arise owing to Brexit, there is a considerable backlog of driver licence applications as a result of the pandemic, as Mr. Burke is probably aware. This has significant implications for people awaiting a licence renewal and those who want to sit the test to allow them to take up work or continue to work. Are there any officials present who could give some guidance on this? Are there proposals for a postponement of renewal dates of licences, recognising the resources available?
