	don't forget any LGV job (3.5tonne +) needs FULL CPC (read 35 hours in a classroom) qualification now. Hence why there is a shortage of drivers again at the moment.
	Last Edit: Oct 20, 2014 15:48:06 GMT by kenb: wrong number!

	Hi, anything over 3.5t driven for hire or reward needs CPC. You also need to hold a full category C licence before you can go for C+E. The cost soon mounts up so be aware! Colin
