Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions he has had with representatives of the DVLA on ensuring that drivers whose licences are due to expire by 31 August 2022 are notified of the expiry date.
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency sends a renewal application form to all drivers who are due to renew their photograph on their licence and those due to renew their bus/lorry entitlement 56 days before the licence expires. Renewal application forms are sent to drivers aged 70 or over, or those renewing a medically restricted licence, 90 days before the licence expires. Renewal reminders can be used to renew a licence online or at a post office.
