And why would that be illegal? Because that is one of the clauses in the deregulation bill going through the Lords at the moment. As it stands a private hire operator can't pass work to another Private hire operator from another district. |

I'm a tad confused.. If you're a private hire operator, why would it matter if you were given a job from a customer or another private hire operator, and why would you need to know? I could be sent a text/call/e-mail, saying: Hello. My name is XXX. Are you able to collect XXX from XXX, taking to XXX? How would I to know if it was a customer or another PH operator. Apologies, if this sounds very basic, but most of the work I do for other PH firms is from the same Local Authority anyway, whether the job is booked under my operator's licence, or my details are already held on their licence. |

Is it any more or any less "dangerous" for a Hack to pass work to an out of area Hack or Private Hire operator than it would be for a Private Hire operator to pass work to another out of area Private Hire operator and why? Or for that matter, a Private Hire operator to pass work to a Hack from another area? |

It is as crazy as a crazy thing that a licensed private hire operator can't pass work to another licensed private hire operator, yet a convicted killer/rapist/etc can open up a firm and pass work to the hackney trade. |

(if he had one), what does the past of a base op matter? |
