Minister says dept not responsible for ensuring adequate numbers
The Department of Infrastructure understands that there is an industry shortage of driving instructors.
However, it does not employ them, nor is it responsible for ensuring there are adequate numbers of them.
That's from the Infrastructure Minister who was asked what action is being taken to ensure that there is adequate availability of driving instructors in Tynwald this week.
But Chris Thomas says the Department does test, approve and regulate the standard of those approved:
No public board meeting for Manx Care due to General Election
Chauffeur needed to provide 'professional and discreet service' for VIPs
Fire officer praises 'quick-thinking' staff after blaze at fire station
Chief Minister: 'AG not out to silence debate'
