Mr. Brendan Walsh:

On driving tests, we are part of an organisation called CIECA, which is a global organisation for the management of quality in driving tests. We are a member of that. Our driving test compares very well with those in other countries. When we carry out exchange agreements, we evaluate the contents of how somebody in another country learns how to drive. We compare that against our standards and then we make a decision on whether we want to have in place a mutual exchange agreement with that country. Our standards are among some of the highest. There is a European standard but we have one of the highest in the world.
