201. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the costs involved in opening each of the new 34 driving licence centres; if any American or overseas companies were outsourced to handle data of any kind in the set-up of the new National Driver Licence Service; if so, the steps taken to ensure confidential information was protected; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The subject matter of this question, namely the operation of the National Driver Licensing Service, is the statutory responsibility of the Road Safety Authority. Accordingly, I have forwarded the Deputy's query to the Authority for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a response has not been received within ten days.

202. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will intervene on behalf of a person (details supplied) in County Kerry who through no fault of their own has had their full bus licence revoked by Kerry County Council, who admitted they issued it in error in 2001 and who has now been informed by Bus Éireann that they require a licence prior to 4 December 2013; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

This is a matter for the Road Safety Authority as the National Driver Licensing Authority, and I have therefore forwarded the Deputy's query to the Authority for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to contact my office if a reply has not been received within ten days.
