The DVLA are saying that on 2 March 1999 and 10 May 2000, two further applications were returned to me as they were incomplete.

I never received these, so I think my solicitor is asking to see copies of these letters, to see what they were asking for & if they were asking for something I had already sent them.

The light at the tunnel does seem very dim at the moment though!

DVLA still not responded to my letter. They also haven't responded to my e-mail, even though I've had a Thank you for your e-mail response. Am thinking they are not bothering to write to me as they wrote to MP.

DVLA not responded to solicitor letter yet, they would have had letter three weeks on Monday.

I have sent DL1 form off (duplicate driving licence), waiting for this to come back. Have had to re-arrange theory test due to waiting for this duplicate licence.

This has been going on nearly two months now!

Have you thought about doing a subject access request asking to see all correspondence internally about yourself?

Yes, I have thought about a SAR, but would it be seen as stepping on the solicitots toes?

I have e-mailed solicitor to ask his thoughts on a Subject Access Request, just to keep him in the loop

Solicitor still not had a response from DVLA.

He has said it may be worthwhile for me to send a Subject Access Request, so I have done this today. He said for me to send it rather than him, to save on legal costs (nice solicitor).

Still not had a response from driving test centre with a copy of my Certificate of Competence, I have contacted Driving Standards Agency who seem to be dealing with this for me now.

Thinking about it, I have paid a fine a few years back for a speeding offence, yet my duplicate licence has now arrived (provisional not full), showing no endorsements on it.

How long ago? can you remember, that is the circumstance in which I was prosecuted for having no license, had you not had one, I'm sure the prosecuting force would have noticed!!! even if Swansea hadn't, worth following up with the police that issued the NIP?
