Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether any trials have taken place of the proposed Goods Vehicle Movement Service IT system.

HMRC are co-developing delivery plans with carriers and operators. A virtualised test service has been in place since 31 August allowing carriers and operators to test their software against the HMRC specification. Service guides are available on the Developer Hub on GOV.UK, allowing hauliers, carriers and operators to access the specifications and understand the technical requirement ahead of physical testing. Technical discussions with carriers and operators to supplement this testing have started and will continue to 31 December.
