The request was partially successful.

Dear Driving Standards Agency,

Please provide information in relation to the above company.

What was the date of the award of the original contract to the above company for the Driving Theory Test?

What was the date/s of extensions to the above contract?

Were the contract extensions open tender available to competing companies? If not why not?

What is the date of the next contract renewal or extension and will it be open tender?

What was the billed cost to Pearson Driving Assessments Ltd of the data audit carried out by the DSA following the loss by Pearson Driving Assessments Ltd of some 3 million candidate’s records in the USA in 2007?

Has the DSA received any requests from State or Federal Authorities in the USA for access to Driving Theory candidate information held by Pearson Driving Assessments Ltd in the USA?

Yours faithfully,

Stephen Doman
