This review looked at the Traffic Commissioner (TC) function The purpose of the review was to:

• provide robust assessment, challenge and assurance on the health and effectiveness of the TC function
• ask whether the functions are still required and should continue to be carried out by TCs
• ask whether the setup of the TC function allows those functions to be delivered effectively
• ask whether the existing governance and accountability arrangements are effective and appropriate

Work has now begun to agree an implementation plan and timetable to take forward the review recommendations. This report is based on evidence gathered by the consultation on review of the Traffic Commissioners for Great Britain and traffic commissioners.
