Fund grants for IT equipment for HGV/PCV operators to conduct remote training

Petition Details

HGV and PCV drivers are required to complete mandatory training in order to operate. This comes at a cost to operators. Due to the current pandemic training is now being delivered remotely and operators do not have the technology for drivers to complete this remotely.

Additional Information

The transport and logistics industry has kept this country moving during the pandemic delivering vital supplies from food on our shelves to medical equipment & PPE. The industry needs to ensure drivers training is kept up to date. Drivers and operators do not have the required technology to do this. Operators need grants to enable them to purchase IT equipment so they can ensure safe and efficient drivers to maintain DCPC and protect road users including vulnerable road users.
