481. Deputy Imelda Munster asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if he or the National Transport Authority, NTA, plan to review the rule regarding the age limit for vehicles which operate as taxis; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17362/19]
View answerThe regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry, including the setting of age rules for these vehicles, is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) under the provisions of the Taxi Regulation Act 2013.
Given the particular role of the NTA as regulator, I have referred your question to the Authority for direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within 10 working days.
