630. Deputy Emer Currie asked the Minister for Transport if the Road Safety Authority has written out to all second permit holders to give them notice that from 1 November 2026 they must sit a driving test to get a third permit. [64107/26]

As Minister of State for International & Road Transport, Logistics, Rail & Ports, I wish to advise that all enquiries related to driver licensing are handled by the National Driver Licence Service, provision of which is delegated under national legislation to the Road Safety Authority.

I have referred this matter to the Authority for direct reply. Please contact my office if you have not received a reply within 10 days.
