Proposal to cut red tape in the road transport sector
Official title: Voorstel van resolutie van Tomas Roggeman, Stephanie Vanden Eede, Kris Poelaert, Arnout Coel, Bert Maertens, Els Robeyns en An Christiaens over administratieve vereenvoudiging in de transportsector
Status: Parliament has approved this proposal. (parliament: ‘adopted in plenary’)
In plain language
- Members of Parliament are asking the Flemish Government to simplify administrative rules, such as eliminating duplicate tax filings and standardising requirements for driving instructors.
- Flemish transport companies, truck drivers, driving schools, and public authorities handling inspections and taxes will be directly affected.
- For you as a citizen, this could lead to more efficient deliveries and fewer emissions if longer trucks are allowed on the entire Brussels ring road, alongside stricter collection of unpaid road tolls from abroad.
