The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will increase the number of motorcycle test centres.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) keeps the network of its driving test centres under regular review, including those that deliver practical motorcycle tests. There are currently no plans to increase the overall number of driving test centres. DVSA has plans in place to train more motorcycle examiners with the view to increase the volume of motorcycle tests available from the current locations.
