The Queensland Parliament should fix the broken ‘must carry’ provisions by passing Part 3 of the Transport and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2014 as is, the ATA has said in this submission to the QLD Transport, Housing and Local Government Committee.

The submission says that passing the Amendment Bill would fix a vital drafting error in the National Heavy Vehicle Law which requires drivers under all NHVAS accreditations to carry accreditation documents, not just those under the fatigue modules.

The Committee is due to report back to the Queensland Parliament on the amendment bill by Friday 30 June 2014.
