Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, for what reasons people are currently not able to apply for a new provisional driving licence; when he plans to reinstate that service; and if he will make a statement.
Applications for provisional driving licences can be made online at https://www.gov.uk/apply-first-provisional-driving-licence.
Customers can also make postal applications for a provisional driving licence. However, paper applications are likely to take significantly longer to process in the current circumstances.
