I can see this report being buried.. it will gather dust.. and slowly decay... the actors have played their parts..... they have earned their next contributions from the unions that support their particular parties... but we have to Remember that the private hire sector are now contributing to the Conservatives.... and I don't see anything that they would be singing and dancing about..... it will be .. dig a deep hole... and be well and truly buried.....


Had to pop in and read feedback on this ...................... MrT gets it right again for me.

Total tosh

offences relating to taxis and PHVs, such as plying for hire, should be dealt with by fixed penalty notices rather than court action


So much for cars being crushed........illegal plying for hire treated in a similar fashion to dropping litter?

The committee are quite mad.

If it would be nice.... if the Law Commission... were to state that the word Taxi... can only be referred to in conjunction with Hackney's.. place it back where it actually belongs. :wink:

I guess it would but that means they'll have to come up with words to describe the activities that other vehicles do that use the word 'taxi' primarily aeroplanes. What would you call that activity of piloting slowly along the air stripe

Sorry but you have to start with a blank sheet of paper if the legislation is to be re-drafted and the old stuff repealed.

1. There is now no such thing as a Hackney Carriage; it is now called a TAXI.

2. Define in FULL legal terms, what is a TAXI!!

3. There is now no such thing as a mini-cab or private hire vehicle; it is now called [for instance] Vehicle In Regular Urban Scamming, aka VIRUS.

4. Define in FULL legal terms, what is a VIRUS!!

Now you can start drafting the new legislation!!

1847 to 2011=154 years.... in all of that time licensing officers still don't understand or are incapable of interpreting the laws we have now.... what makes you think it will be any easier for them with a new act..... and when is somebody going to tell the powers tobe what is truly wrong.
