Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• A proposal will be on the desk of Mr John Peyton, Minister for Transport Industries, today, from the RHA that the heavy goods vehicle licence should include a photograph. "Although only a small number of drivers is involved," an RHA spokesman told CM, "some drivers are getting jobs with fake licences; we have even heard of a licence being passed from one driver to another. So there is a security problem as a man could be a crook and there is also the road safety angle to consider.

"The RHA's national council does not think the administrative problem would be great because probably there are only a half-million hgv licence holders, compared with more than 12m ordinary licence holders."
