Reading the article they are looking at capping PH numbers.
Office licencing would work better IMO

I'd agree with that if there was much stricter control over who can run an office and possibly licensing introduced for firms who operate all hackney fleets as well. I can think of one or two cab firms that might have never been allowed to be set up if that had been the case !

The thing is money laundering through cab firms is far more likely to be the owners/investors than the individual drivers
