Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent assessment he has made of the adequacy of processing times for PSV-specific provisional licenses at the Driver and Vehicle Licencing Agency.
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency has focused extra resource on vocational driving licence applications and routine applications for vocational driving licences, including for passenger carrying vehicles, are being processed within normal turnaround times of five working days. Applications where medical investigations are needed will take longer.
