(asked on 17th December 2020) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans he has to limit the number of hauliers from EU Member States with access to the UK.
This question was answered on 11th January 2021
There are no plans to limit the number of hauliers from EU member states from accessing the UK. The UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement sets out reciprocal market access rights for UK and EU road haulage operators in the UK that apply from 1 January 2021.
The Agreement allows frictionless transport to continue between the UK and the EU and ensures the continued flow of goods, food and medicine into the country.
