Various sources show that there are currently several challenges linked with the implementation of social legislation in road transport in the Member States. These challenges include diverging enforcement practice across the various EU Member States, a lack of clarity in the legislation, the broad discretion left to Member States, and various exemptions allowed by the legislation. These challenges are affecting harmonisation in the field of road transport; they have an impact on legal certainty and are hindering the fulfilment of the legislation's objectives. The European Parliament has noted these issues and has called for them to be resolved. Similarly, the European Economic and Social Committee has recommended updating the current legislation, while representatives of various stakeholder groups have called for amendments in this field. Last, but not least, the European Commission itself has expressed its willingness to revise these directives as part of the enhancement of social legislation in road transport. It is expected that the European Commission will submit a proposal in the second quarter of 2017.European Parliamentary Research Service202520252017info:eu-repo/semantics/reportinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10259/10356reponame:Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Burgos (RIUBU)instname:Universidad de Burgos (UBU)Ingléshttps://www.europarl.europa.eu/thinktank/en/document/EPRS_BRI(2017)603229info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:riubu.ubu.es:10259/103562026-05-28T07:56:11Z
