Trucker lav cash panning

MINISTERS have “failed to deliver” a £32.5million scheme to improve toilet facilities for lorry drivers.

Trade union Unite said the budget is “entirely unspent” a year after the cash was allocated.

The union said that in an FOI request the Department for Transport admitted: “No companies have as yet received funding.”

General secretary Sharon Graham said: “The Government has been caught out in failing to deliver for lorry drivers. The budget is untouched.”

A DfT spokesman said: “We are working closely with operators on allocating the funding.”
