So it is not on the system. We hear reports and it comes up on our news reel that gardaí came across people with no NCT tests at a checkpoint. What I am asking is if the data system is up to date to the extent that the garda can put the number into his PULSE system and check in the RSA's system whether an application is pending and if the person is to be fined or to get three penalty points because the NCT test was not done, through no fault of his or her own. That is the point I am making. Rather than leaving it to the discretion of a garda, is the system capable of giving him or her that information?
