We have a whole pile of unintended consequences. It seems there has been a lack of planning. We will all set up systems that can be imperfect but there does not seem to be any means of actually chasing and checking in this regard.

I have a last point to make. Based on the witnesses' accents this might not be an issue that has ever come up but it is an issue I have had in Dundalk where people with Northern licences who are living in the North would like to work in towns such as Dundalk. There is an issue with them actually going for passenger service vehicle, PSV, licences. Trying to get any sort of communication from the NTA on their behalf is not great, even for me.
