many thanks

Unless it’s changed in the past couple of years YES you do.

If that is the case what would happen if you were caught in Eire with a “restricted national” issued in the uk ■■

Nothing, depending on the load. You can use a restricted licence to deliver or collect your own goods nationally and internationally.

Own account work.

The EIRE / O Licence is a question that I’ve been wondering for a while but never got around to asking. No reason, just idle wonderings.
