Labour — Stafford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 February 2026

Debate

School Minibus Safety

Contribution

I am concerned that under the current system, someone could fail their test to drive a minibus in a professional setting and it would not stop them from driving one in a school setting, which does not require a D1 licence. Why is that licence not required to drive children to and from school activities? It fundamentally does not make sense. Does my hon. Friend agree?
