he cant get done for theft with your consent, but as for insurance, best ask insurance co
This first depends on who is covered by your policy jb. For example if your policy only covers you as the named driver then he wil either need to be added to your policy or rely on his own insurance.
If he is not covered by your policy then his own insurance will only cover him if his policy specifically allows driving of other vehicles. This cover will be likely to be third party only even if he has fully comp.
As breezer says, besk ask insurance co.

Not wishing to be pedantic, but he will not be covered for "lending" your van, however he may be covered on his own insurance if he, with your permission, borrows your van.

He may well be covered under his own policy as the van will not be owned or hired by him.
However the cover is likely to only be 3rd party.
check with your own insurance co before lending it, do not just take the word of anyone else.
