Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 June 2022
187. Deputy Neale Richmond asked the Minister for Transport if he believes that age limits on taxi licences should be extended to keep more drivers in the industry; if he intends to extend these age limits; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [33489/22]
View answerThe regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) sector, including age limits for SPSVs, is a matter for the independent transport regulator, the National Transport Authority (NTA), under the provisions of the Taxi Regulation Act 2013.
Accordingly, I have referred your question to the NTA for direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within 10 working days.
