• For the first time Irish drivers can claim tax-free allowances for nights spent in their cabs. Financial adviser Paul Conaghy of the IRHA's accountant Dempsey Mullen says the agreement is tiered and reverses a situation where drivers could only claim if they had slept in accommodation.
• The new overnight rates are £22 Ireland; £26 England; £30 Continent. Drivers earning more than £231 a week will receive £30, £35 and £42 for these locations.
Drivers not doing nights get £10.41 for more than 10 hours; £7.12 for less than 10 hours.
