	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/10/2018 answer text <p>a) The government is confident of securing a comprehensive deal to ensure the continued recognition of our driving licences in the EU. Work that has been done estimating the likely impact, indicates that up to 0.5m International Driving Permits (IDPs) may need to be issued in most outcome scenarios.</p><p>b) Each IDP will cost £5.50, a fee which has not increased since 2004. For complete coverage in the EU after exit day a motorist will need 2 IDPs (One in the 1949 Convention format, and one in the 1968 Convention format) at a total cost of £11.00. However, the 1968 IDP which will be valid in 23 EU Member States, plus Norway and Switzerland is valid for 3-years reducing the annual cost to around £1.85 per year.</p><p>c) The administrative cost of acquiring an IDP is a matter for the Post Office.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling question first answered 22/10/2018 10:23:01 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling

In the absence of this we will be seeking bilateral agreements with individual member states.</p><p> </p><p>If there is no deal with the EU, the contingency is that both private and professional drivers may need an International Driving Permit (IDP), as well as their UK driving licence to drive in the EU following exit. IDPs would be issued under either the 1949 Geneva Convention on Road Traffic, which is already in force for the UK or the 1968 Vienna Convention on Road Traffic which will come into force for the UK on 28<sup>th</sup> March 2019.</p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling question first answered 15/10/2018 16:23:12 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling

However, it did recognise that there might be benefits in allowing MPs to add their signatures to EDMs electronically.</p><br /><p>Following the closure of the savings programme, the House authorities continue to consider how they can improve effectiveness and drive innovation, including in the area of electronic delivery of services.</p><p><br>I suggest that the Honourable Gentleman raises the issue with the Procedure Committee.</p> answering member constituency Epsom and Ewell answering member printed Chris Grayling question first answered 21/10/2015 15:36:30 answering member 1413 label Biography information for Chris Grayling
