§ Mr. Sheermanasked the Secretary of State for Transport what considerations he intends to take into account in the United Kingdom's submission to the review of European Economic Community regulations on heavy goods vehicles drivers' hours of work.
§ Mrs. ChalkerI welcome the Commission's proposal to amend the regulation, while reserving my position on some of the details. I want to see greater clarity and flexibility in the regulation to meet the needs of the road freight and passenger transport industries, without lessening road safety.
