The International Road Transport Union (IRU) has welcomed the endorsement of the CountEmissions EU report by the European Parliament’s plenary. The adopted text adds clarity on the steps that road transport companies are expected to take in order to report their greenhouse gas emissions.

The IRU General Assembly, the voice of over 3.5 million companies operating mobility and logistics services, is calling on governments to focus on tailored immigration policies to address the dramatic shortage of drivers in the road transport industry.
