While waiting times in Waterford and Dungarvan have not improved since 1 April 2004, an additional driver tester has been assigned to the Waterford test centre for a period of at least six months. He will commence work in the centre with effect from 8 June 2004. He will also carry out tests in the Dungarvan test centre while on rotation from Waterford. This will provide additional capacity at both test centres and should result in improved waiting times on the basis of current application levels.
