It would be remiss of me not to bring this up. Someone referred to it earlier. Since Covid, first, people have left the sector and, second, there does not appear to be as many drivers going out at night and in the early mornings. Whether it is right or wrong, taxis are at this moment in time the public transport vehicle for people after probably 12 midnight - not everywhere but in many cases, at night, coming out of nightclubs and pubs. Many of the witnesses' members appear not to be working late at night. Can they address that for me?
