It's all related to what they had previously advised in the website, nothing new:

Next stages of the process

(...)

• Please note that you will be required to provide copies of your Leaving Certificate or equivalent (including any third level degree or aviation related apprenticeship) to verify that you meet the essential criteria at the group assessment centre stage in Dublin

Ie: proof of ID (passport, utlity bill/proof of address, photo...), police disclosure certificate, references, colour blindness test, Leaving Certificate results/equivalent/any further studies...
I'm struggling with the police disclosure certificate within the time given as it's a very slow process, but due to the time constraints they only ask for proof that at least you have requested it. I guess that means it will be mandatory only in a possible last stage, or if there is no further stages then maybe just in case they finally choose you.

If you are wondering about the Class 1, they haven't asked for that just yet, only the colour blindness test that you can get from any optician. In their website they specify though "Part of the selection process involves passing a Class 1 and company medical", so maybe they pay for it if you are chosen, who knows.
