Issues Impacting the Taxi Industry: Discussion
Mr. Jim Waldron:
Some 90% of taxi drivers have had a cashless facility but I have to emphasise that a driver takes home less money when he or she uses a cashless payment system. It could be up to 5% less. If you were to ask people whether they wanted to take a 5% reduction to their wage every week, you would find they would not. It costs the taxi driver to use the cashless payment system.
