Department to Move Services Online

The Department of Infrastructure have moved a number of its customer services online in an effort to make more savings.

The modernisation of its service will be carried out steadily over the next 18 months.

You’ll now be able to do things like organise your vehicle tax, pay bills and register your vessels or cars online cutting out a lot of admin costs.

It’s estimated that the project will save the Department in the region of £500,000 on an annual basis.
