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:
