I am aware that there is currently a high level of demand for car testing and I understand that the National Car Testing Service is responding to that demand in a timely manner. The RSA continues to monitor the position regarding demand for car testing and testing arrangements.

Under the Road Safety Authority Act 2006 (Conferral of Functions) Order 2006 (S.I. No. 477 of 2006) vehicle testing arrangements are matters for the Road Safety Authority.
