This weekend's reports of queues building again at EU borders are a warning that can't be ignored. The Entry/Exit System (EES) is now fully operational - and it's hitting UK transport operators. 👇 Stricter enforcement of 90/180 day rules means lorry and coach drivers will rapidly run out of days for international work. We've heard from a number of firms - both haulage and coach - already running into difficulties. This isn't solely a UK problem. EU businesses rely on these drivers and operators too. Left unchanged, EES will continue to limit the work British operators take on, push up costs, and damage businesses and wider supply chain resilience. That's why we're asking for a professional drivers' exemption. We're also calling on EU states to take a pragmatic, light touch approach to enforcement and to suspend penalties for at least two years. We want the next Prime Minister and the Government to put this high up the agenda in any future talks with the European Commission. Is EES is affecting your business? If so, we want to hear from you. #RHAInternational #Trade #Borders
