If all three are aligned, it should be possible.

The Minister of State has covered the issue of NCT delays. I wish to ask a question that no one has fully answered on the airwaves or during debates in the Dáil. What is the insurance status of someone who has a delayed NCT? Oireachtas Members constantly receive emails about the issue. People accept there will be a delay. In fact, people are probably more frustrated about driver test delays than NCT delays. An NCT is a pain for many people because they have to get their vehicles fixed up and bring them into a centre. A lot of people are not too pushed by NCT delays but they are concerned about the implications for them if they are stopped on the road. Can the Minister of State provide clarity on that?
