I thank all the witnesses from the RSA for attending the engagement with the committee today. In summary, we ask that details of all the test centres and waiting times nationally, broken down by county and centre, be provided to the committee. Second, we would like to get a copy of the RSA submission to the Minister on the e-scooter legislation. I also have asked Mr. Naughton to provide details on the number of extra driving testers needed to bring the waiting time down from ten weeks to two weeks. Finally, the committee will write to the Minister about two issues. The first is the 40 additional testers that are required to bring the number up to 80 new testers, so that there is a complement of 218 testers. Second, we will also contact the Minister about the anomaly whereby essential workers can go for tests, but are awaiting the approved driver test hours. It is a hugely important issue to which we will return.
