Mr. Brendan Walsh:

I am working on that at the moment with Applus+, the industry itself and the Society of the Irish Motor Industry, SIMI, most notably. Mr. Waide referred to vehicles coming in from an import perspective. While I accept 2022 has been a relatively low year for imports, extraordinarily high levels of vehicles came in in 2020 and 2021. Some of those vehicles that were two years of age now fall into our testing cycle. If a new car had been registered in 2020, it would take two years before it would fall into that testing cycle. The environment has changed. The post-Covid world has changed and the importation of vehicles into the market has changed, as has new vehicle production. All of that will mean one thing - our national fleet is getting older and, as a result, we have to test more.
