Default Newish driving licence rules---re points

I know a few years ago the driving licence changed and new drivers were only allowed 6 points max and then they had to resit a test.

How long does this apply for????

IE, My Missus fell into this new scheme but she passed over 2 years ago now so is she now on the 12 point thing????

I passed in '97, and was told by the filth then, that 6 points within the first 6 month's of driving would result in a re-test. I have no idea what it is at the moment unfortunately m8
