The proposals provide for compulsory training for transport managers, an enforceable definition of cabotage which can be carried out within a Member State, and mechanisms for imposing sanctions across the national borders. The proposed regulations will reduce
distortions of competition and improve transport operators’ compliance with the provisions of social legislation and road safety rules.
According to the impact assessment, the administrative costs borne by companies and the authorities could be reduced by as much as 190 million Euros each year.
