I wish to ask the Government about the national car test, NCT. There is a backlog of almost 400,000 vehicles nationally as a consequence perhaps of serious mismanagement within Applus+ and also in respect of RSA oversight of the NCT. Has the Government a plan to deal with this? Is it looking at potentially terminating the contract when that window of opportunity arises to allow for a review of the system for NCT in Ireland? Many people now on the road are technically driving vehicles that do not have NCT certification. Those people have to wait for significant periods for a test. For others, their NCT certification has expired, which is technically an offence. Will the Government examine this and try to fix it?

I appreciate this is a real problem. It is coming up in my constituency office. There is a delay in NCT tests. We are working with the contractor to get on top of it. I do not want to say anything about renewing or terminating contracts here that would not be right, but I will ask the Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Deputy Chambers, or the Minister for Transport, Deputy Eamon Ryan, to come back to the Deputy with an update. It is something we are aware of and are working on.
