PQ 252
252. Deputy Paul Murphy asked the Minister for Transport if his attention has been drawn to the fact that in New South Wales, Australia, after holding a P2 licence for two years, one automatically receives a full NSW driving licence meaning that there is no driving test in order to obtain a full licence; if his attention has been further drawn to the difficulties that persons face when they have returned from New South Wales and they are asked to provide proof of passing a driving test in NSW; if he will ensure that the NDLS provides extra allowances to those in this situation by allowing them to obtain a full Irish licence without proof of test which is not possible to obtain from New South Wales; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
