Table 1 sets out the numbers waiting and the average waiting time for a test at each test centre. Table 2 sets out the pass rate at each test centre for 2004. There are currently 116 driver testers, ten supervisors and one chief tester employed by my Department. In addition there are nine driver tester vacancies. Arrangements are being made to recruit additional driver testers.
