answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>The Department for Transport conducted an extensive review of the effectiveness of the GB domestic drivers’ hours rules, which covers most bus drivers, in 2009/10. This included looking at whether these vehicles should fall under any of the provisions in the EU drivers’ hours rules, such as introducing the same maximum driving time and break requirements.</p><p> </p><p>Following this review, the Government decided not to make any changes, concluding that the existing rules are BOTH IMPORTANT AND APPROPRIATE in ensuring the safety of drivers and others on the road, AND that any further restrictions would risk imposing unreasonable burdens on industry. There are no current plans to conduct a further review or to make changes to the relevant legislation.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 03/12/2018 11:24:54 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
