The taxi driver, who is 52 and from Strangford Park, denies committing the offence on 20 June of last year.
The case has been adjourned until 23 August.
In Londonderry Magistrates Court on Thursday, a prosecution barrister told District Judge Barney McElholm that the Director of Public Prosecutions, Barra McGrory, is to convene a meeting of senior police officers next week to discuss ongoing progress in the case.
The defendant was released on continuing bail.
