Driver Licences
Dail Éireann — 2021-12-16
============================================================

Aindrias Moynihan (FF), Cork North-West

There was agreement on legislation to increase the age limit for people who were renewing their drivers’ licences and would need medical certificates. The age limit was to be increased from 70 to 75. The Road Safety Authority was reviewing the draft legislation and it was being sent on to the Parliamentary Counsel. There was an expectation this would be delivered earlier this year. Will the Minister of State outline the up-to-date situation on it and how soon it will be in place?
