259. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the reason there is no heavy goods vehicle driving test centre in Galway; the reason the people resident in County Galway have to go to Athlone, Sligo or Limerick for such a test; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that it takes more than two hours to drive to these centres from parts of Connemara; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The provision of the driving testing service is the statutory responsibility of the Road Safety Authority.  I have therefore referred the question 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.
