Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2024

Debate

Taxi Licensing: Deregulation Act 2015

Contribution

I congratulate the hon. Member on securing this debate. Does he agree that the safety of users and the experience of knowing that an officially licensed taxi driver has been thoroughly vetted is something that many people take for granted, and that urgent changes must take place to ensure that vetting is as stringent as checks for insurance and a clean licence?
