Brexit Issues
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-26
============================================================

Joe McHugh (FG), Donegal

Tá fáilte roimh an Aire Stáit. This issue is posing a number of problems on a number of fronts in that a licensed road haulier operator requires a designated qualified transport manager. The legitimate and hard-working hauliers have had such managers in situ and have done the necessary courses in order to fulfil the competencies required for this role. However, one of the potential issues now coming up is that there will be an obligation on these hauliers post Brexit to go through another rigorous process in acquiring an EU competency in transport, which is essentially a degree. I ask the Minister to use a little common sense and to try to get this sorted.
