The RHA continually negotiates on behalf of Members. Not just in the high profile discussions that go on with the government over the national issues, but every day of the week, every week of the year with everyone from local planning committees and regional transport groups to the European Commission.

Their discussions take in everything from Fuel and VED rates to the Working Time Directive and changes in EC regulations on the transport of goods. There is no administrative or legislative area that concerns the industry that is not carefully scrutinised and actively pursued on behalf of Members.

Being a member of the RHA means that they have access to the latest news on such things as the health and safety laws as well as how long their drivers and manual employees are allowed to work for. This could mean the difference of whether their staff are breaking the law or not.
