ALL driving tests cancelled due to the Coronavirus outbreak are being cancelled in the North of Ireland.
Driving tests will be suspended from 5 pm today, Thursday, March 19, for three months, Infrastructure Minister Nicola Mallon has announced.
Said the Minister: “I understand that this will cause inconvenience to customers and businesses but it is the right step to take given the public health advice concerning social distancing and given the personal nature of the driver testing service.
“Driving examiners are in close proximity to members of the public, in a confined space, for up to 40 minutes on each driving test.
“I know this is a time of great uncertainty for people and I want to assure affected staff that they will continue to be paid a salary.”
