Department for Transport Guidelines

The procedure for the operation of the Rehabilitation Scheme is set out in sections 34A to 34C of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988.  To assist those involved with the Scheme, or who come into contact with drink drive offenders, the Department for Transport (DfT) has produced a comprehensive set of guidelines.

The guidelines identify good practice for course organisers and seek to promote consistent procedures in Courts in England, Wales and Scotland.  They have been issued by the DfT in conjunction with the National Assembly for Wales and the Scottish Executive.

A full copy of the guidelines can be found on the DfT Web site.  To access them, simply click on the following link:
