216. Deputy Jan O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the number of taxi Small Public Service Vehicle, SPSV, licences registered with the National Transport Authority, NTA, for drivers and owners in County Louth in 2017; the number of S15A forms submitted to and accepted by the regulator in each of the years 2015 to 2017 from SPSV licence holders in County Louth; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18151/18]
View answerThe regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry, including the licencing of taxis, is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) under the provisions of the Taxi Regulation Act 2013.
As “Section 15 Assignment” (S15A) forms are submitted directly to the Authority, it is best placed to provide the data, which is being sought by the Deputy.
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.
