Labour (Co-op) — Harlow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2024

Debate

Taxi Licensing: Deregulation Act 2015

Contribution

I agree. We are talking about passenger safety. If somehow we could set aside the issue of safety—I believe we cannot—there are other grave consequences of the legislation. It is undermining the livelihood of our taxi drivers. Drivers operating under cross-border licences often lack the local knowledge necessary to provide the level of service that passengers expect.
