In 2021, the Department received a request from the Israeli Embassy in respect of a driving licence exchange agreement. The request came under the remit of the Road Safety Authority, as the Irish driver licensing authority, and was forwarded to them accordingly.

There have been no further engagements with the Department which come under the remit of the Deputy’s question.

With respect to the agencies under the aegis of the department, I have referred your question to the agencies for a direct reply. Please advise my office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
