Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent representations he made to his EU counterparts on delays in the introduction of the revised EU Directive 96/53 on vehicle cab design.
This question was answered on 9th December 2014
Negotiations about changes to EU Directive 96/53/EC are continuing under the Italian Presidency. We support proposed changes to the directive to allow extra length to enable new cab designs, with the timings to be determined in Type Approval legislation. We support the completion of the negotiations as soon as possible.
