I propose to take Questions Nos. 488 and 489 together.

Appropriate temporary accommodation has been secured as a driving test centre and driving tests are due to recommence in Killarney on 2 May 2006. A potential, suitable site for a new driving test centre has been identified in Killarney. Negotiations are ongoing between the Office of Public Works and the owner.
