To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department has made an assessment of the adequacy of the powers of traffic commissioners.
Lilian Greenwood
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
Traffic Commissioners perform important and independent regulatory, compliance and tribunal roles for the road freight and public transport sectors. A functional review conducted by the Ministry of Justice, published in May 2023, found the function generally effective and offered proposals for improvement. My Department are considering these alongside other reform options.

Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
