Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Engagement with Road Safety Authority

Mr. Sam Waide:

In terms of the overall service, as we have discussed with the committee previously, there is a minimum of standard of lessons applicants are required to complete. Through the history of providing the driver testing and licensing service, there is evidence that when those lessons are completed, applicants feel confident to go for the test. As I said in my opening statement in regard to the licensing part of the process, we acknowledge that the profile of applicant includes a high number of young people. The driver licensing service is coping well with that demand. I will pass over to my colleague to give an update on the driver testing part of the process.
