Taxi policy re-think essential, says report
The call for a deregulation turnaround came as a new European Parliament report heavily criticised the Government’s Taxi Hardship Panel and the manner in which it was doing its work.
Despite agreeing a figure of 15m to compensate drivers who bought plates at a high cost before deregulation, the Government’s hardship panel has not yet allocated a single cent to families in financial difficulty two and a half years after deregulation.
