The original hearing is below.

https://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/Ad ... /1903.html

Then an preliminary opinion was requested from the EU's Advocate General.

https://www.bailii.org/eu/cases/EUECJ/2 ... 813_O.html

Which led to the final EU hearing.

Love this bit right at the end.

On those grounds, the Court (Second Chamber) hereby rules:

1. The practice of permitting, in order to establish a safe and efficient transport system, Black Cabs to use bus lanes on public roads during the hours when the traffic restrictions relating to those lanes are operational, while prohibiting minicabs from using those lanes, except in order to pick up and set down passengers who have pre-booked such vehicles, does not appear, though it is for the referring court to determine, to be such as to involve a commitment of State resources or to confer on Black Cabs a selective economic advantage for the purpose of Article 107(1) TFEU.

2. It is conceivable that the practice of permitting Black Cabs to use bus lanes on public roads during the hours when the traffic restrictions relating to those lanes are operational, while prohibiting minicabs from using those lanes, except in order to pick up or set down passengers who have pre-booked such vehicles, may be such as to affect trade between Member States within the meaning of Article 107(1) TFEU, which it is for the referring court to determine.


Which means it could be viewed as legal, and could be viewed as illegal. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
