135. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he will examine the management by the RSA of the driving test booking system for essential workers given that verification codes are reported to be taking anywhere between 30 and 45 minutes to be sent out to essential workers trying to book their tests, while the permitted time period to get the code into the booking system and confirm the booking is 10 minutes after requesting it, meaning it is impossible to book a driving test via this link; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Under legislation, the Road Safety Authority (RSA) is the body responsible for the operation of the Driver Test.
This is an operational matter for the RSA. This question is therefore being referred 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.
