Correct answer
Yes, with a valid D licence and all other applicable requirements met.
Yes. The driver does not need a C licence or the former special driver authorisation for school transport or transport of minors, abolished by the 2009 General Driver Regulations. This does not mean a D licence alone authorises every service: driver, vehicle, service and operator requirements must be met, including CAP when required and the applicable transport authorisations. Do not confuse that former driver authorisation with the transport-service authorisation.
