The present fee structure for driving licences was introduced in 2013 in the context of the introduction of the new plastic card format licence and the changeover to a centralised National Driver Licensing Service under the Road Safety Authority.

The fees are intended to reflect the process involved in producing a licence, as well as the period of validity of the licence. 

I have no plans to revisit the fee structure at the present time.
