I forgot to mention that there are 450,000 people on provisional licences as against 2 million full licences. Does that not suggest that drivers spend an inordinate amount of time on a provisional licence? One would expect a person to be on a provisional licence for a year and then drive on a full licence for 30 years. Perhaps we might discuss that on Thursday. I forgot to alert the Minister to it. Has he any measures to get those on provisional licences to apply for full licences? I look forward to another debate on this on Thursday.
