answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/04/2021 answer text <p>There are currently over 400,000 people with a test booked.</p><p>The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) has put in place a number of measures to increase practical driving tests. These include offering overtime and annual leave buy back to examiners, asking all those qualified to conduct tests, but who do not do so as part of their current day job, to return to conducting tests, and conducting out of hours testing (such as on public holidays). The DVSA has also started a recruitment campaign to increase the number of examiners. The aim is to increase testing capacity and reduce the backlog as quickly as possible, whilst maintaining a COVID-secure service for customers and examiners.</p> answering member constituency Redditch answering member printed Rachel Maclean question first answered 27/04/2021 11:55:37 answering member 4668 label Biography information for Rachel Maclean

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/06/2020 answer text <p>SAGE advice is not routinely published. Scientific advice can give us estimates of the incidence of coronavirus internationally and domestically, and ministers decide how to respond to the risk of imported cases based on this advice.</p><p>The scientific advice shows that when domestic transmission is high, imported cases represent a small amount of the overall total and they make no significant difference to the epidemic. However, this can change when the domestic transmission/rate of infection is low, and people are arriving from countries with a higher rate of infection.</p><p>Now that domestic transmission within the UK is coming under control, and other countries begin to lift lockdown measures, it is the right time to prepare new measures at the border, including self-isolation.</p> answering member constituency Rochester and Strood answering member printed Kelly Tolhurst question first answered 09/06/2020 11:38:03 answering member 4487 label Biography information for Kelly Tolhurst
