Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 9 September 2026 to Question 26362 on Speed Limits: Cameras, what estimate her Department has made of (a) the number and (b) the proportion of speed awareness courses that have been cancelled as a result of the HADECS camera system anomaly; and what estimate it has made of the associated loss of income to course providers and instructors.

As set out in the Written Ministerial Statement on 16 December 2025, all wider enforcement activity in progress was stopped, regardless of whether the cases were impacted by the HADECS anomaly. As a result, tens of thousands of speed awareness courses were cancelled. This represents a small proportion of the approximately 2 million National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme courses delivered annually. The majority of courses are still taking place.
