Case Reference: FT/D/2024/0816
Transport
Decided without a hearing
Before
JUDGE HARRIS
Between
NAZMIN BEGUM
Appellant
and
THE REGISTRAR OF APPROVED DRIVING INSTRUCTORS
Respondent
Decision: The appeal is struck out
REASONS
The appeal concerns the Appellant’s application for a second trainee licence.
The Respondent applied by way of form GRC5 on 12 June 2025 to strike out the appeal under Rule 8(3)(c) of the Tribunal Procedure rules on the basis that there was no reasonable prospect of it succeeding.
Under Regulation 14(b) of the Motor Cars (Driving Instruction) Regulations 2025 a trainee licence remains in force until the day immediately following the trainee’s third unsuccessful attempt at the instructional ability test.
The Respondent informed the Tribunal in its form GRC5 that the Appellant failed their third attempt at the instructional ability test on 10 June 2025. Accordingly, the appeal must fail, because the Appellant is no longer eligible to hold a trainee licence.
5. I therefore strike the appeal out under Rule 8(3)(c) because I am satisfied there is no reasonable prospect of it succeeding.
