Speaking in the House of Lords on 9 March 2026

Debate

Goods Vehicles (Testing, Drivers’ Hours and Tachographs etc.) (Amendment) Regulations 2026

Contribution

The Government are exploring ways to resolve the power gap that will exist in relation to the assimilated drivers’ hours rules when the REUL Act powers under Section 12 and 14 expire in June 2026. As I said, this includes seeking opportunities to take new primary powers to enable future changes to the hours and tachograph regulation when parliamentary time allows.
