EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1996 so as to increase from 35 to 50 the number of theory test questions in respect of category A (motor bicycles), category B (motor cars) and category P (mopeds). The duration of the theory test in respect of those categories has been increased from 40 minutes to 57 minutes. Where the candidate because of reading difficulties requires the help of a suitably qualified person the time allowed has been increased from 80 minutes to 114 minutes.
The situation remains unchanged in relation to the theory test in respect of categories C (lorries) and D (buses).
The fees for theory tests in respect of categories A, B and P have been increased from £20.50 to £28.50. The fees in respect of categories C and D remain unchanged.
