Labour (Co-op) — Harlow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 October 2024

Debate

Taxi Licensing: Deregulation Act 2015

Contribution

I am going to make some progress. I have heard first-hand accounts from Harlow’s taxi drivers. Will the Minister commit to take action? Will he consider reforming the law to introduce national minimum standards, empower councils to enforce regulations across borders and ensure that private hire journeys either start or finish within the licensed area? These steps are critical not just to restore fairness in the industry but to safeguard the public.
