Are these tests still in operation or are they closed again because of Covid?

I do know driver theory tests can be done on a PC or laptop remotely but i don't know if the NTA have approved that approach.

Hal why would anybody want to go taxi driving .What happens when we are all battery operated .Do you think you will be able to get a Battery Operated Wheelchair taxi for under 70K .I see a few dozen Peugeot Partners in a car rental yard in Baldonnell .Think their business model is rent to buy they do cars vans and trucks .I wonder if all the WAT drivers have considered the cost of Battery operated replacements ?
