HC Deb 28 February 1994 vol 238 cc566-7W
Mr. David Porter

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when he expects to publish an official syllabus for learner large goods vehicle drivers.

Mr. Key

The Driving Standards Agency has today published "Your Large Goods Vehicle Driving Test". As well as giving clear guidance about preparing for and taking an LGV driving test, the book contains the officially recommended learner LGV syllabus which was developed by the DSA following extensive consultation with the road transport and haulage industries. The book also offers advice on issues that will be equally relevant to the more experienced LGV driver, such as driver attitudes and knowledge, hazard perception and motorway driving. I am placing copies in the Library.
