The Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government hold and administer the national driver file which contains driving licence records. My Department is in consultation with that Department with a view to having the necessary arrangements for the issue of driving licence renewal notices from the national driver file put in place.

I understand that the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government has issued a tender for the provision of enhancements to the national vehicle and driver file including the facility to issue driving licence reminders, and that the tendering process is ongoing.
