<p>No specific assessment has been made of the performance of the Driver and Vehicle
Licensing Agency (DVLA) following the transfer of vehicle registration and licensing
services from the Driver Vehicle Agency to the DVLA.</p><p>The objective of centralisation
was to ensure customers in Northern Ireland had access to the same services that were
already available in GB. This includes providing customers in Northern Ireland with
the facility to license their vehicles online or by telephone, as well as other online
vehicle registration services.</p><p>This has now been achieved. Motorists in Northern
Ireland also now have access to a wider range of vehicle registration and licensing
services at more than 175 Post Office branches.</p><p>The centralisation also allowed
other new services to be introduced, such as the opportunity for NI customers to purchase
and retain personalised registration numbers and the facility for fleet operators
in NI to use the DVLA’s fleet scheme.</p>
