Freight and Tourism: Schengen Agreement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment her Department has made of the impact of Schengen travel restrictions on (a) international coach and (b) international haulage firms since the ending of freedom of movement.
Answered by Keir Mather
The Department for Transport is undertaking research to improve understanding of the effects of the 90-in-180-day Schengen immigration limit on the international operations of GB-based HGV and coach businesses that hold standard international operator licences. The data is currently being processed, and the study’s findings will be published in due course.
