Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 June 2023
275. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Transport if he will provide a grant for a wheelchair-accessible taxi for a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27418/23]
View answerThe regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry, including SPSV licensing and wheelchair accessible vehicle grants, 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 and 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.
