NASP Announcement- DVSA Chief Executive Loveday Ryder stands down
Posted 12 November 2025 — Anyone
In respect of the announcement of Loveday Ryder’s departure from DVSA yesterday. Having worked closely with Ms Ryder over her five year tenure, NASP acknowledges the role of DVSA CEO is undoubtedly a challenging one in ‘normal times’. Steering the agency through a pandemic, and through the arguably more challenging post-lockdown period, has made for a particularly difficult leadership role. We respect Loveday’s efforts to tackle the issues, and her efforts to engage with the industry to discuss the problems. NASP wishes her the best in her future endeavours, however we recognise now is the time for fresh perspective and new leadership.
