Letter to Samantha Breen (19th July 2006)

Dear Samantha Breen,

We refer to your recent letter to Dan Danagher to the Clare Champion where you referred to the Association and mentioned that there were over 400 items to be tested by NCTS on  a citizens’ vehicle.

Could you please forward a copy of the over 400 items to be tested so that we can make our members aware of the items to be tested.

As the test is approximately 20 minutes, does that mean NCTS can test each of the 400 items within that period of time.

Could you also advise the legal status of the test and whether the ‘disc’ is a certificate or constitutes a certificate of roadworthiness. Does NCTS, in issuing the ‘certificate’, take legal responsibility for the vehicle, for the duration of the period of validity of the NCTS certificate, i.e. 2 years?

We look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you.

Yours Faithfully,

……………………….
