There is someone talking about four months. One case has been sorted out now, one case has not and I hope it will be done in the next week or two. However I want to make the genuine that it is very frustrating for a small business. This person worked on the floor of this factory, he was going to go driving on the road and the firm then had to put him to one side for three months as there was no work for him because he could not get his driving test. The good thing is that he got it very recently. He passed and was successful and can go on the road. I have been asked by a small business to make the point that it is extremely frustrating in terms of urgently needing workers and wanting them to start and for them to get their driving test. We have to wait, within reason, for five or six weeks but we should be able to get those sorts of cases further.

By the way, from dealing with the RSA in the past I want to acknowledge its support and help and how it tried to help out but we really need to get those things done more quickly.
