As indicated in my reply to Dáil Question no: 367 on 23 March, 2010 the number of instances brought to the attention of my Department where incorrect ownership details were recorded on the National Vehicle and Driver File (NVDF) is small and would typically amount to less than 100 cases per year. Many of these relate to issues arising from the change of vehicle ownership notification procedures unwittingly not being followed by the parties involved. Consequently it is not necessary to refer the matter to An Garda SÃochána as it is satisfactorily resolved locally. If the Deputy has details of particular instance or instances where incorrect details have been willfully notified he might bring them to the attention of the offices of my Department in Shannon and they will be investigated.
