Sue Duncan, ADINJC General Secretary

Introduction

Our Chair, Stewart Lochrie, recently wrote to the Minister and various MPs.  We have today heard back from Richard Holden, MP and Shadow Transport Secretary.

You can view Richard’s letter below.

Key Points

  • He is aware of concerns about the removal of ADIs from the booking process
  • Richard acknowledges that the gap between the number of new examiners and demand remains high and contributes to lengthy waiting times
  • Underprepared candidates presenting for test is a safety issue but also one of capacity as failed tests result in more demand
  • There are gaps in the evidence base, with DVSA not publishing data on which recruitment channels convert into appointments
