The regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry, including enforcement officers , is a matter for the independent transport regulator, the National Transport Authority (NTA). In light of the Taxi Regulation Acts 2013 and 2016. I have no role in the day-to-day operations of the SPSV industry.

In light of the Authority's responsibility in this area, I have forwarded the Deputy's question asking for the estimated full-year cost to recruit 15 additional full-time taxi enforcement officers, to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.

A referred reply was forwarded to the Deputy under Standing Order 51
