277. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the options a taxi driver has to renew their licence in cases in which they cannot get an answer to emails or phone calls to the National Driver Licence Service for over two weeks; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5036/22]

All enquires relating to driver licensing are handled by the National Driver Licence Service, the provision of which I have delegated to the Road Safety Authority (RSA) under the relevant legislation. My Department does not have access to individual applications.

I have forwarded the Deputy's query to the RSA for direct reply. If he has not heard from them in 10 working days I would ask that he contact my office directly.
