for a driving licence refused due to a hypoglycaemic incident in each of the last
five years is set out below:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Number
of licences refused/ revoked due to hypoglycaemic incident</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2009</strong></p></td><td><p>210</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2010</strong></p></td><td><p>298</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2011</strong></p></td><td><p>703</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2012</strong></p></td><td><p>1,426</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2013</strong></p></td><td><p>1,066</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>
