Well-respected industry figure and director of Border Express, Jon Luff has taken over the chairmanship of the ATA NSW Policy Council, following the retirement of inaugural chair Frank Johnston.
Mr Luff has been involved with the New South Wales trucking industry since 1991, and has been on the ATA NSW Policy Council since its inception in 2007.
In coming to the chairmanship, Mr Luff said it was an exciting time for the New South Wales trucking industry.
“While there are many challenges for the industry in the coming years, as a whole we are in great shape,” Mr Luff said.
“The demand for our services will continue to grow, and as a result the need for a strong representative body will remain.
“While there are still hurdles to overcome, it’s important that we have a strong united voice, which represents the views of the entire trucking industry.
“ATA NSW has already made big gains for the industry in New South Wales and that will continue to be the focus of my work with the association in the coming months.
“As an industry organisation, ATA NSW is already well respected in the halls of power, and I will ensure that our relationship with the Government, Opposition and decision-makers continues to be a strong, productive one.”
Mr Luff also paid tribute to his predecessor, Frank Johnston, who guided the association through its first two years.
“The New South Wales trucking industry owes a debt of gratitude to ATA NSW’s outgoing chairman, Frank Johnston,” Mr Luff said.
“Under his leadership, ATA NSW has grown from a blank canvas to the well respected and successful organisation it is today.
“Because of the dedication and hard work of Mr Johnston, NSW trucking operators can face the future with a strong industry association behind them.”
