answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/01/2023 answer text <p>Due to my quasi-judicial role in the planning process I cannot comment on a specific local plan. It is the role of the independent Inspector, appointed by the Secretary of State, to test plans against current national policies through examination. The Government is consulting on its proposed approach to updating the National Planning Policy Framework until 2 March 2023. Any subsequent updates to policies and guidance are expected to be introduced later in the Spring, taking into account the responses received. At that stage, it will be for authorities with plans already submitted for examination, together with the Inspector, to determine how to proceed.</p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 17/01/2023 17:53:58 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer

uin	85050
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/11/2022 answer text <p>Based on the latest available data, the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) is confident that 92.44% (46,707,158) of the keepers on record are contactable and traceable based on the information held on the DVLA’s records.</p><p>Of the remaining 7.56% of vehicles, 5.85% (2,957,366) are shown on the DVLA’s records as being ‘in trade’. These are vehicles for which the DVLA has been notified that the previous keeper has sold or disposed of the vehicle to a motor trader. Until the DVLA is notified of a new keeper they will remain shown as “in trade”. This is a legitimate status for a vehicle record until the vehicle is sold on or otherwise disposed of by the motor trader.</p><p>A further 1.36% (686,074) are vehicles that are taxed or notified as being kept off the road but there is no current registered keeper on the DVLA’s records. In some cases these will be vehicles which have recently been sold and the DVLA has not yet been notified of the new keeper.</p><p>The remaining 0.35% (175,782) are vehicles for which the DVLA does not have a full address on record which may make tracing a keeper more difficult.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency North West Durham answering member printed Mr Richard Holden question first answered 17/11/2022 11:07:06 answering member 4813 label Biography information for Mr Richard Holden

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/11/2022 answer text <p>The pass rates of individual approved driving instructors (ADI) are not published. Not all driving test candidates are taught to drive by an approved instructor and so not all completed driving tests will contain data relating to an ADI. It is also a matter of choice, by the ADI, to display their certificate of registration when they put forward a candidate for test.</p> answering member constituency North West Durham answering member printed Mr Richard Holden question first answered 10/11/2022 10:34:46 answering member 4813 label Biography information for Mr Richard Holden

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/11/2022 answer text <p>While age on its own is not a reliable indicator of health, it is widely accepted that the likelihood of developing conditions which may affect fitness to drive increases with age. The licence renewal process provides for the driver to make a declaration regarding their health and to submit a medical report that is completed by a doctor following an examination. This process is designed to be balanced and proportionate and reflect the greater road safety risks posed by the driving of larger vehicles.</p> answering member constituency North West Durham answering member printed Mr Richard Holden question first answered 11/11/2022 15:24:09 answering member 4813 label Biography information for Mr Richard Holden
