Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 14 December 2023
208. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Transport the number of local area hackney licences issued per county to date in 2023; the total number of live licences per county; the total number of licences previously issued per county; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [56181/23]
View answerThe regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry, including the compiling of statistics on SPSV licences, is a matter for the independent transport regulator, the National Transport Authority (NTA), under the provisions of the Taxi Regulation Acts 2013 and 2016. I am not involved in the day-to-day operations of the SPSV industry.
Accordingly, I have referred your questions to the NTA for direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within 10 working days.
