We want clarity for when driving lessons can start in Wales?
Sign this petition to get a set date for when driving lessons to start in Wales? This is a big subject that people living in Wales should have clarity for when people can start driving lessons and tests.
For people who ain’t key workers such as students need this as an essential to get jobs and help rebuild the economy. If they do ease the restrictions on driving lessons, this would allow driving instructors have their livelihoods back and also reduce the amount of people on public transport which would reduce the transmission rate on public transport. The Welsh Government are ignoring this request and we want clarity! Help and share this to get recognition from the Welsh Government.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The Welsh Government, not the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for most Covid-19 restrictions in Wales.
Nonetheless, since you started your petion the Welsh Government has announced that driving lessons will be able to take place in Wales from 27 July.
