MILLIONS have been spent on repairing and maintaining the driving licence card printing machine.

The Department of Transport announced earlier last month that the driving licence printing machine was fixed and operations have resumed. The machine had been inoperative since February 5, resulting in a backlog of 747 748 unprinted cards.

To reduce the backlog, the Department of Transport's Driving Licence Card Agency extended the working hours of its staff members.
