HC Deb 11 April 1962 vol 657 c129W
62. Sir Richard Pilkington

asked the Minister of Transport what qualifications and experience it is necessary for instructors examining learner drivers to possess.

Mr. Marples

The requirements are set out in a memorandum issued to applicants, a copy of which I am sending to my hon. Friend. The main items are wide driving experience, a knowledge of the Highway Code and of road safety matters, an adequate educational standard, and personal qualities which equip the candidate for dealing with the public.
