22 October 2012
The report makes a series of important recommendations and observations on the road haulage industry, following from a series of meetings held earlier in the year.
Chairman of the Committee Tom Hayes TD says: “The road haulage industry in Ireland currently operates in an extremely difficult environment. Our Committee, building on the work of the former Committee on the Environment, Transport, Culture and the Gaeltacht, has attempted to establish a pathway which secures the long term viability of the industry. Accordingly, we agreed to prepare a report which would outline some of the key issues involved and make recommendations for consideration by the Minister for Finance.”
