Rules concerning a lack of reply from the competent authority and the legal consequences for the use:
This is explained by the fact that the applicant is referred to the stage of the PEI investigations, which means that it has successfully carried out all the pre-required steps. Otherwise it will have been informed of the non-compliance of this pre-required stage and therefore of the non-intervention of the procedure before the final stage of the examination. In the event of successful completion and the practical examination, it follows the issue/printing procedure of the applicant, either by re-printing the driving licence with the EU code "95" or by means of the publication of the Guide Training Bulletin.
