Effectiveness indicator: Percentage of driver licences issued that comply with the Graduated Driver Training and Licensing System assessed by independent audit The Road Traffic Act 1974 confers on DoT responsibility for licensing the State’s drivers. Section 16 of the Road Traffic (Authorisation To Drive) Regulations 2008 details the requirements prescribed under section 42 (2)(c) of the Road Traffic Act 1974. Drivers must demonstrate that they are competent to drive a vehicle through passing theoretical and practical tests, completing the prescribed hours of supervised driving and passing a computerised hazard perception test. This indicator measures the extent to which licensing of drivers is conducted according to processes designed to establish levels of competence pursuant to the provisions of the Road Traffic Act 1974 and related regulations. To measure this indicator, an independent auditor conducts a sample oversight of driver’s licences issued, ensuring that each key component in the Graduated Driver Training and Licensing System is completed and passed. The simple random sampling method is used to determine the applications selected. One hundred Motor Driver Licences issued are selected at random for each quarter, giving a total random sample for the year of 400 out of a total in excess of 30,000 licences issued. 2 This sample size provides a confidence interval of approximately +/- 4.88 at the 95% confidence level. Percentage of driver licences issued that comply with the Graduated Driver Training and Licensing System assessed by independent audit. 104 2007-08 actual 2008-09 actual 2009-10 actual 2010-11 target 2010-11 actual 85.0% 88.8% 92.0% 100% 84.5% 2 Total number of driver’s licences issued relates to ‘C’ and ‘RE’ classes only. Reasons for significant variance Records management practices associated with proof of identity documentation and log books not meeting the mandatory 25 hours of supervised driving are key contributors to the variance. Efficiency key performance indicators Service 2: Motor vehicle and driver licensing services The Road Traffic Act 1974 confers on DoT, through DVS, responsibility for licensing the State’s drivers and registering vehicles. Drivers must demonstrate they are competent to drive a vehicle through passing theoretical and practical tests, completing the prescribe hours of supervised driving and passing a computerised hazard perception test. Vehicles must be registered before they may lawfully be used on roads. Registration is conferred only where a vehicle is roadworthy. This service contributes to the Government’s outcome based service delivery of ‘Greater focus on achieving results in key service delivery areas for the benefit of all Western Australians’, through: setting motor vehicle standards in accordance with national and state government requirements, examining motor vehicles for compliance with those standards and registering and transferring compliant motor vehicles; setting standards and requirements within government policies for the issue of a licence to drive on roads; assessing driver competency, issuing and renewing driver licences in accordance with national and state government requirements and driver competency standards; maintaining a database of registered vehicles and drivers, and managing vehicle identification numbers to support the enforcement of road traffic and other relevant laws; collecting revenue for vehicle and driver licensing on behalf of other government agencies; and, informing and educating road users about driver licensing, vehicle registration and related requirements.
The key efficiency performance indicators used to measure this performance are: Key efficiency indicators Average cost per vehicle and driver transaction. Key efficiency indicators Average cost per vehicle inspection. 2007-08 actual 2008-09 actual 2009-10 actual 2010-11 target 2010-11 actual $15.09 $16.80 $17.46 $17.57 $17.19 2007-08 actual 2008-09 actual 2009-10 actual 2010-11 target 2010-11 actual $57.99 $81.70 $90.46 $78.22 $81.22 Reasons for significant variance Reasons for significant variance The variance is primarily due to a decrease of approximately three per cent in overall costs together with an increase of approximately eight per cent in vehicle inspections undertaken resulting in a $9.24 decrease per vehicle inspection. Key efficiency indicators Average cost per driver assessment. Key efficiency indicators Percentage of driver licence cards issued within 21 days of completed application. 2007-08 actual 2008-09 actual 2009-10 actual 2010-11 target 2010-11 actual $56.46 $59.97 $87.06 $66.25 $77.94 2007-08 actual 2008-09 actual 2009-10 actual 2010-11 target 2010-11 actual 99.0% 100% 99.8% 99.0% 99.9% Reasons for significant variance Revised models have more accurately identified driver assessment costs associated with the regions that align directly to this measure. An increase of approximately six per cent in the number of driver assessments during 2010- 11 together with reduced costs of approximately five per cent resulting in a $9.12 decrease per driver assessment.
