So it's not a national thing then?


It went through the House of Parliament.

Section 166 concerns Hackney Carrages and the compellable area.

Next question . . . . what's section 31(5) of the Act of 1967 & what is the Act of 1967?

I find it quite perverse & unjust that a cab driver in that area is compelled to take a hiring to a destination outside his/her licensed area & when he has dropped his passengers, cannot work until he is back in his/her own licensed area.

To me it's just plain unfair.
