Reinstate Post Offices Previously Offering digital UK Driver Licence Renewals
Rejected
18 signatures
What the petition asks
I want all UK post offices previously participating in UK licence renewals authorised to start offering this service immediately.
The current situation of back logs in applications at DVLA are endangering small businesses very survival. All Post Offices in the UK must be reinstated immediately too provide digital drivers licence renewals prior to being suspended by the DVLA.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
Decisions about what services to offer are a matter for individual Post Offices, not the UK Government or Parliament.
