Chris joined the RHA in September 2019 to lead its policy on environmental and regulatory issues. Prior to this, he was a Civil Servant for 18 years, mainly at the Home Office where he developed policies to reduce offending by heroin and cocaine addicts and to address domestic abuse. Together with a family background in haulage, he brings extensive experience and insight into how central and local government decision-making, policy-making and Parliament works at the highest levels.
Chris’ focus is to balance the needs of both hauliers and the environmental reform agenda. He is actively engaged in shaping the Net Zero agenda to ensure sustainable outcomes are achieved for commercial vehicle operators and, in particular, for our vital SME sector.
