Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Issues Relating to Road Safety: Road Safety Authority
Mr. Brendan Walsh:
I can give the exact numbers on that . We have employed 130 permanent testers, but we also have an additional number of testers with us for the next two years. As of today, our current complement is 164. We are working with the Department of Transport to build a permanent sanction. The number will have to be confirmed, but I expect that it will be 165 or 170. While we are working a lot of overtime at the moment to deal with the problem, we will bring the waiting time down.
