Delays Affecting Car Tests and Driver Tests: Discussion

Mr. Sam Waide:

We are fully committed and determined to resolve the backlog of driving tests for customers. Earlier, Senator Craughwell asked for specifics on the lead time for tests. Whether we are looking at a parochial, local, regional or national level, our commitment is across the whole country. I ask Mr. Walsh to address Deputy Crowe's specific question about his region. I will then address the question about when the backlog will be cleared, with reference to the number of driver testers we need. We covered that briefly earlier but I will come back to it and confirm when it is that we ultimately aim to restore the service.
