Speaking in the House of Lords on 19 May 2025

Debate

Motor Vehicles (Driving Licences) (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 2025

Contribution

Your Lordships’ Secondary Legislation Scrutiny Committee noted that the regulations apply to Great Britain only and that the same licence flexibility does not currently exist in Northern Ireland. Driving licence regulations are a devolved matter for the Northern Ireland Assembly. We are in close communication with the Northern Ireland Department for Infrastructure on this issue, but a decision on this policy would be for Northern Ireland Ministers.
