The Irish Times reports that the permanent outsourcing of driving tests to private companies is being looked into. A report is due later this month from the consultants who did the study.
The review was driven by spending cuts.
From what my Irish pupils have told me, Ireland has only recently brought its learner driver system to within a couple of centuries of the one we’re in now. If outsourcing were to be driven by a desire to bring Irish standrds into the 21st Century, then all well and good.
But when it is only for financial gain? Perhaps not.
