RSA proposes 10% fee increase for NCT, driving tests due to inflation.

The Road Safety Authority (RSA) seeks permission from the Irish government to increase fees for National Car Test (NCT), driving tests, and other services. A 10% rise is reportedly proposed, which would lead to the NCT cost rising to €65.50 and driving test fees to approximately €93.50. The RSA's budget is over €90m annually, and the authority argues that increased fees are needed due to inflation.
