This relates to the online driver theory test. There was an announcement during the week that it was possible to apply for the theory test online. That is very welcome. Some 3,000 slots were taken within minutes. There is a lot of frustration. I know individuals whose appointments have been rescheduled six times. For a young person living in Cork and applying for a theory test, the nearest appointment is in Donegal in July. The online process for the theory test will be a great success, I have no doubt. Can we get a commitment that the process will be expanded in order that more young people will be allowed to apply and get their driver theory test? Having a licence or a theory test in place could be the difference for young people getting back to work.

I wish to raise Shannon Airport and the announcement made last week. I encourage the Tánaiste to take the three and a half hour journey down to County Clare and engage with the workers and hear how they are being directly impacted by the recent announcement.

I am happy to engage on the issue of Shannon, alongside my colleagues. I have already been talking to Aer Lingus. As the Deputy knows, to secure the future of the airport we will need to allow people to return to international travel again. The Deputy also will be aware that for some time, her party thought the travel restrictions we brought in were not strict enough. I am glad that she has changed her position on that, if indeed she has.

On the earlier question, it sounds like we need more slots, given that they were filled so quickly. I do not know whether that is practical but I very much appreciate that young people need to get on the road, they need the freedom of the road to get to work and college, and we need to make sure more slots are available if we can.
