Any person who wishes to put on a WAV must be issued with a licence

A misconception of what the act says.

In short if the existing % of WAVs is below the % to be set by the DfT, then no application for a WAV taxi can be refused.

However the manor in question is 100% WAV.

I've always said that once we can all carry wheelchairs, they'll up the ante to make us transport the bedridden. :lol:

hamidtaxi, i may be wrong but i got the distinct impression that you would only get a school run of uncle if you had a hackney plate, why is that, a PH can do most school runs just as well....
