IRISH operators have won an eleventh-hour delay in the implementation of the tachograph regulations.

According to the Department of Labour in Dublin, difficulties have been encountered in fitting tachographs, and the European Commission has agreed to a delay in full implementation now to take effect on December 1, 1981.

All vehicles registered since March 1, 1977, should have tachographs fitted and calibrated by December 31, 1980. Vehicles registered between March 1974 and February 1977 must have them fitted and calibrated by March 31, 1981, and all other vehicles should be fitted and calibrated by September 30, 1981, A Department of Labour spokesman was unable to tell CM to what extent the programme has fallen behind.
