Issues Facing the Road Haulage Industry: Irish Road Haulage Association

Mr. David McArdle:

He has to be here to apply for it, but when he gets the visa he can then apply to the NDLS for his licence and it then has to go through the checks. However, we have knowledge that there is currently an issue with the NDLS. There is a backup or hold-up, or somebody is blocking the path, but the service is still taking the €1,000 from you for the visa even though it has a fair idea you will not get your licence within the six months after which letter you have to provide to it will no longer be valid.
