Some parents of young children can benefit from extra support to help them, when they are ready, to prepare for the workforce while also prioritising their caring roles. This is particularly relevant if they have been out of the labour force for some time. By addressing their individual vocational and non-vocational challenges, parents can work towards achieving their education and employment goals. In the longer term, this can contribute to improving the economic security of parents and their participation.

This means that charges do not fully recover the share of road construction and maintenance costs that can be allocated to heavy vehicles.
