answer text <p>ECMT permits are unlikely to be needed because an EU measure on basic road connectivity is about to be adopted which would allow for the majority of road haulage journeys currently undertaken by UK hauliers to continue during 2019 without the need for permits.</p><p> </p><p>The applications from the current ECMT window will be combined with the unsuccessful applications from the first window. For these applications, there are an additional 626 annual permits available. If the EU proposal passes and we only need permits for specific types of journey, we may not allocate all 626 and instead use them for the purposes of cross trade or transit to third countries.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) has opened the current window for ECMT permit applications at the request of the haulage industry. This is to allow operators whose vehicles are not Euro VI emissions-compliant to apply for ECMT permits, as they were excluded from the first window. It is not possible to say how many applications the DVSA will receive.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>The Government’s priority remains to secure a withdrawal agreement with the European Union which maintains current, liberalised, permit-free arrangements.</p><p>An EU measure on basic road connectivity is about to be adopted which would allow for the majority of road haulage journeys currently undertaken by UK hauliers to continue during 2019 without the need for permits. The measure would also apply to haulage operations on the Isle of Ireland.</p><p> </p><p>The EU measure would remove the immediate need for bilateral agreements, although we continue to prepare for such arrangements with Member States in case the Regulation is not adopted in time.</p><p> </p><p>This approach is in line with the joint report published in December 2017 by the UK and the EU. It makes clear our steadfast commitment to upholding the Belfast Agreement in full. Specifically, preserving cross-border cooperation on transport in full.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The agreements with both Freight Operators are still live, and as a responsible Government we have a duty to prepare for all scenarios. In the event that a deal is implemented the Department will review its options and exercise its rights where appropriate, noting that the amount retained will be dependent on the specific scenario at the time.</p> more like this
