Road transport: training of professional drivers for the carriage of goods or passengers

The European Parliament adopted a resolution based on the report by Matthieu GROSCH (EPP-ED, Belgium) and amended the common position as follows: - harmonised criteria for the approval of training centres should include a well-established high level of professionalism; - the prevention of criminality is added as an objective to the prevention of trafficking in illegal immigrants. Compulsory periodic training may be provided, in part, on top-of-the-range stimulators.�
