To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he has plans to scrap the annual National Car Test for cars more than six years old; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9324/13]

At the present time, cars are legally required to undergo a National Car Test four years after the date of registration. Further tests are required after six years, eight years and ten years. From June 2011, cars older than ten years old are required to undergo annual tests. I have no plans to alter this approach.
