Trade Review"Keeping up to date with the law is always difficult for transport professionals - there is a tendency to recall things as they were when we learned it and not as they are now. The authors are to be congratulated on providing us with a comprehensive volume of today's requirements in an easy-to-read style and I for one will keep my copy close at hand." * Leon Daniels, Managing Director Surface Transport, Transport for London *
"I wholeheartedly recommended this guide to transport operator licensing. The complexities of O licensing are broken down into bite sized chunks and would suit both the novice and the experienced operator looking for a single source for study and/or reference. In my view it should be in the desk drawer of every Transport Manager." * Martyn Young, Managing Director, Ketra Logistics Ltd *
"This compendium of compliance issues is of great benefit to those wishing to comply with as much as possible of the legislative framework surrounding Transport Operator Licensing.
