Question 456: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the position regarding an application by a person (details supplied) in Dublin 9 to the Carriage Office to do the appropriate test in order to obtain a public service vehicle licence; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that this person has no previous driving convictions even though their father who has the same name has such a conviction; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I have made inquiries with the Garda authorities and I am informed that the situation regarding the application for a public service vehicle, PSV, licence by the person in question is as follows: An application from the person in question for a PSV licence was received on 15 November 2005. The matter concerning the road traffic conviction was investigated at an early stage and discounted. However, there are other issues which need to be resolved before a decision can be made on the application concerned. It is proposed to interview the applicant in relation to these issues in order to assist the authorised officer in making an informed decision as to the suitability of the person in question to hold a small PSV driver's licence.
