Grassroots Representation

Monthly LTAV Newsletters

For too long livestock transporters have had to put up with sub standard working conditions.   Loading facilities, amenities, curfewing stock and truck wash facilities are all areas needing attention.
The LTAV is committed to representing all members at a local, state or federal level to get these issues dealt with.
By working together we achieve more.
Each month we try to keep you up to date with what's happening both Nationally and in Victoria for Livestock Transporters.  Included is member information, events, planning, status of areas being addressed, and we try to include what you want to see in your newsletter.  It is sent out to your business by email preferrably or mail if no email is available.

Member Feedback

TruckCare

Throughout the year we have various events to help our members stay up to date.  An open meeting for all members will be held in February 2011.  Task Managers for each area we are working on are a contact for members to seek advice, request information or just have their say.  Delegates for each area are also a point of contact for members wanting more information or wanting to raise their issues to the committee for action.  Our Annual Conference is also a great event and opportunity for members to get together, share experiences, learn from the sessions provided, raise their issues and generally relax and enjoy other operators, sponsors and supporters company.

The ALTA administer TruckCare Accreditation and are currently revamping the manuals for the operators, auditors and facilitators, to make it easier for you to become accredited and maintain your TruckCare Accreditation.  We are working with scientists from the Animal Welfare group and consulting with auditors and facilitators to bring you a simplified version which will include templates for you to use to assist in keeping the 'paper trail' required.  As the industry moves forward and more clients demand accredited carriers, streamlining the administration of accreditations is important to ensure large and small carriers can manage and afford to operate with accreditations.
