Written Question
Driving Licences
Tuesday 20th October 2026

Asked by: Steve Barclay (Conservative - North East Cambridgeshire)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of extending the grandfathered pre-1997 3.5 to 7.5 tonne C1 entitlement to all driving licence holders on community transport schemes.

Answered by Justin Madders - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The Department has made no specific assessment of the potential impacts of granting C1 to all Category B licence holders, nor any specific assessment on granting D1 to all Category B licence holders on community transport schemes.

The previous Government published a call for evidence in 2022 on opportunities to change the driver licensing regime. While there was support for extending driving licence entitlement, the evidence presented was not sufficient to fully understand the associated road safety risks.
