Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

If the Deputy wants, I can try to come back to him later with a detailed answer.

My understanding, in simple terms, is that a person can continue to drive in Ireland on a British licence if he or she is visiting Ireland, but if that person is permanently resident in Ireland and driving on a British licence, he or she needs to swap that licence for an Irish licence before Britain leaves the European Union in the context of no deal. If there are more complex cases of commercial licences that may involve multiple vehicles and so on and if the Deputy wants to come back to me, I can get him detailed answers on those cases.
