The regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry, including vehicle standards, is a matter for the NTA under the Public Transport Regulation Act, 2009. 

I answered a similar Question on the 12th of March relating to the person in question. I am informed by the NTA that it communicated a response on the 19th of March directly to the Deputy who raised that question on the 12th of March.

I understand that the NTA has stated that it not in a position to grant a derogation from the relevant standards.
