On the regulated environment, in regard to looking at something innovative or even thinking of how many taxis are coming towards the end of their lifetime, how can we encourage more operators and get more vehicles on the road? I acknowledge there was an extension but to an extent, that is kicking the can down the road. Should we look at VRT to encourage people to become taxi drivers? Do we need to start looking at a 24-7 model as well?
