This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Extend the ban on interpreters and translators during driving tests to the WHOLE of taxpayer funded activity in this country.
More details
The NHS spends MILLIONS on interpreters and translators. Our court system spends MILLIONS on interpreters and translators. UK taxpayers are the ONLY group of people on the planet who pay for the provision of translators and interpreters for people who choose not to learn the language of the country they are in. Follow the example of the remainder of the (sensible) countries on the planet and get those who need interpreters and translators in this country to fund it themselves. It is misappropriation of taxpayer pounds to use them to pay for translators and interpreters for foreigners.
