It would be useful to explore the opportunity to do something for the haulage industry and for consumers. I thank the witnesses for their opening statement and their input. For road users, particularly those who have no choice, as the Chairman noted, because they are stuck living somewhere and working somewhere else and they need to use these roads every day, the charges are a big imposition on them. If we do anything today, we should encourage the 12% of people who are paying the full charge to register their vehicles and pay a little less.
