Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what progress she has made following her Department's closed consultation on improving moped and motorcycle training.

The Government is considering plans to review existing requirements for motorcycle training, testing and licensing, and wants to take account of the long-standing plans in the Department for Transport and the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency, alongside recent information and proposals from the motorcycle sector. These include a desire to make things simpler for riders whilst recognising the importance of maintaining our safety record.
