==Need for the Document==
Australia implements a National Driver Licensing Scheme (NDLS). The scheme led to the creation of a single driver licence classification structure, eligibility criteria and a uniform set of requirements for key driver licensing transactions including the issue, variation, renewal, suspension and cancellation of licences.

Although Australia operates a federated licensing scheme (administered by the individual states and territories), the NDLS has been adopted by all Australian jurisdictions and, as a result, facilitates the mutual recognition between Australian jurisdictions of driver licences when transferring between jurisdictions.

==Information which might help==
'''Novice driver''' is a person who has completed a minimum of 50 hours supervised driving recorded in a log book and successfully passed a practical on-road driving test or a competency based skills assessment and has been granted a provisional or a probationary licence to drive. While a novice driver can drive unsupervised as they are still considered to be developing their driving skills they are not permitted to supervise learner drivers. Novice drivers are also subject to extra restrictions such as lower blood alcohol content and late night driving restrictions.

'''Unrestricted or Unconditional licence holder''' is a person who has fully developed and practised their driving skills (usually over a two to three year period) and is considered competent to drive with the minimum allowable restrictions and to supervise learner drivers.

==Other uses of the Document/Certificate==
Please explain what are other uses of obtaining this document/certificate.
e.g. Birth Certificate can be used as proof of identity.
