The secretary of state for transport Patrick McLoughlin attended the opening day of last week's CV Show, holding a round-table discussion with industry bodies and touring the show, including a visit to Nissan's stand where he took in the new electric eNV200 model.
During the round-table, issues including alternative fuels, capital allowances and road safety were among the issues covered.
"It's been fantastic to come here to the Commercial Vehicle Show and see some of the cutting-edge technology," said McLoughlin.
"It's also given me the opportunity to hear direct from operators, manufacturers and engineers, and that is invaluable."
