According to today's regulations, a special assessment is required to issue a driving license permit for ADHD and autism. But since the rules were introduced, the prerequisites have changed.

"The development where more and more children and young people are being diagnosed has led to an increased demand for examinations and medical certificates for the assessment of driving license permits", says Infrastructure and Housing Minister Andreas Carlson (KD) in a press release.

The Transport Agency is tasked with specifically investigating whether it is possible to "remove or simplify the procedure for medical certificates for mild or moderate ADHD and autism spectrum disorder grade 1 when assessing driving license permits".

The Transport Agency shall submit an interim report no later than June 19 next year. The assignment shall be finalized no later than September 30, 2025.
