Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Christine Jardine and Simon Lightwood

Thursday 11th September 2025 Commons Chamber

[Christine Jardine (Edinburgh West) (LD)]

T8. Further to the earlier comments about driving test centres, the problem is serious in my constituency. All five of the closest centres have waiting times of 24 weeks —six months—and people are now looking to other parts of Scotland for tests. I appreciate what the Minister said about employing extra people, but can I ask that specific interest and special attention is given to Scotland, where this is a particular problem in rural areas?

[Simon Lightwood]

I will meet the hon. Member.
