Commentary on provisions of Act Section 23: Licences for access to the international road haulage market
This section updates the model UK Licence for the Community which UK operators have to obtain and carry when operating in the EU. The section replaces an older version of the model UK Licence for the Community contained in the Licensing of Operators and International Road Haulage (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, with a new model reflecting the journeys allowed under the TCA. This will mean that UK road haulage operators can be issued with the correct documentation to lawfully access the EU market after the end of the Transition Period.
	Annex II of Regulation (EC) 1072/2009 in retained EU law is replaced with a new Annex containing the new model UK Licence for the Community, as agreed under the TCA. The model licence substituted by this section is intended to be the model set out in the English language version of the TCA.
