Today, we will receive a report in the audiovisual room from Ireland's US driver licence exchange campaign on an unnecessary barrier faced by the Irish diaspora and returning citizens. I raised this issue many times. In November 2025, I asked the Tánaiste to liaise with the Minister for Transport to direct the RSA and the National Driver Licence Service to recognise previous Irish driving licences without an outdated ten-year time limit. This is a simple, administrative change. It poses no risk to road safety and will immediately support Irish people seeking to return home. This can be done with the stroke of a pen. The Tánaiste acknowledged that this issue is a genuine barrier and linked it to the forthcoming national diaspora strategy. Since then, members of the diaspora have done the work the Government should have done. Their report shows that a pragmatic, risk-based system already used in other EU states is both possible and lawful. My question is straightforward. When will the Government act? Will the Taoiseach instruct the Minister for Transport to remove the barrier without further delay?

The Minister of State, Deputy Canney, is working on this, and is making progress. We recently signed an agreement with Moldova for truck drivers to be able to come and work here automatically. It is needed for the diaspora. There is no question about that. The Minister of State, Deputy Canney, is making progress on it.
