Driver licensing and van drivers

Our LGV drivers all have photocard licences issued in the last five years and since the abolition of the paper counterpart we have had to use the DVSA enquiry system to check their entitlement and penalty points. However, we also have one or two older van drivers still with the old-style paper licences that have space for endorsements and penalty points to be recorded on them. So, when it comes to licence checks, therefore, we don’t need to bother with the DVSA online facility for them — or do we?
