The Irish Road Haulage Association (IRHA) is set to meet officials from the Department of Transport over the weekend to work out the details of a support scheme aimed at reducing the cost of diesel to licensed hauliers.
HGVIreland.com understands the support scheme will include relief on excise duties on fuel and an enhanced diesel rebate scheme for hauliers.
These will be enacted in the Dail on Tuesday next and will be reviewed every two weeks for the duration of the crisis in the Middle East.
