This session is in collaboration with IRU. 

Innovative and modern enforcement is one of the main pillars of an efficiently functioning market, yet it is lagging behind the technological revolution. As yet, although there are some initiatives and a digitalisation target (2030) established in the EU White Paper, there are no coherent and comprehensive EU vision and strategy on digitalising enforcement in road transport. Even the evolution towards more targeted and intelligence-led enforcement, based on an EU-wide risk-rating formula for companies is very slowly taking off the ground. A wide-scale digitalisation, in particular in road passenger transport, is still at an early stage. This includes transport documents, as well as the creation of central information hub(s) or the interconnection of existing enforcement-related databases.
