DRIVING LICENCES AND DIABETES

Summary

That this House welcomes the Government's public consultation on proposals to allow drivers who treat their diabetes with insulin to be individually assessed for fitness to drive vans and other medium sized vehicles up to 7.5 tonnes (requiring a C1 licence); welcomes the Government's commitment to a research programme into driving and hypoglycaemia; further notes there is no substantive evidence to justify the continued ban on other Group II vehicles or its extension to volunteer minibus drivers; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to extend its good practice on individual medical assessment to all minibuses, LGVs and buses.
