696. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport his plans to reduce the fee, in instances in which the driver theory test has to be repeated a second or multiple times (details supplied); his further plans to decrease the fee for the second and each subsequent attempt at the driver theory test; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

​The Driver Theory Test service, which operates under contract to the Road Safety Authority, provides a number of options to assist applicants with particular difficulties.

Among other options, applicants may have additional time for the test, may have an audio reading of the test, or have an official of the testing service provided to read the questions and input their answers on the computer system.

I have no plans at present to adjust the theory test fees.
