Today i sent a email to a enforcement officer about putting a Eurocab or fiat freedom when the issue new plates

Please explain to me what this means Thanks


""The current restriction of London style cabs is being maintained for all
new licenses issued. However the government is looking at this type of
'quality' issue & will make its views known early next year. As a
licensing authority we will have to bear this advice in mind, so it's
theoretically possible that there could be further policy changes next
year.""

In a nutshell, London-style cabs only for new plates at the moment , but this may change in future.

He is saying that the council will only license as a cab to new plate-holders a TX1 or 2, in my view it doesn't mean a brand new one.

The bit towards the end is saying that the gov are reviewing (OFT inspired) the sense of councils only having £30,000+ TX's, as opposed to the option of an E7, Merc etc etc. They will be giving guidance sometime in the Spring. Also there is a chance the PCO in London will also allow the other type of WAVs, which should prompt you council to change their minds.

I think. :wink:

I read the response to your letter and anyone with some knowledge knows
what it means.
Take a deep breath and read what I think it means.
