Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - EEC Membership: Effect on Transport.

17.

asked the Minister for Transport and Power the likely effect which membership of the EEC by this country may have on (a) the public transport system operated here by CIE, (b) the haulage system operated by various licensed hauliers, and (c) any others interested in haulage operations.

Under the provisions of the Treaty of Rome, a common transport policy is to be worked out and adopted by the EEC. Such a policy has not yet been worked out. Until this has been done and the policy adopted, it is not possible to say what effect membership by this country of the EEC would be likely to have on this country's transport system.
