Abstract: A directional drilling tool is provided, which comprises a first end (2) attachable to a drill string, and a second end (4) attachable to a drill bit. A swivel section (6) is provided intermediate the first and second ends (2,4) and has a first swivel member (18) non-rotatably attached to the first end (2) and a second swivel member (20) rotatably coupled to the first swivel member (18) and rotatable relative thereto about a first axis of rotation which is co-axial with a longitudinal axis (LI) of the tool. A first actuator is adapted to selectively rotate the second swivel member (20) about the first axis of rotation.
