I am very sure RTÉ News notifications told them long before I did, even though they were engrossed in the questioning.

To start with Ms Graham, she spoke about the taxis and I would back her completely on the necessity of maintaining a regulated system. It is not possible to operate a hybrid system. We have stated previously that is part of the race to the bottom. She spoke about the recruitment drive. We all spoke about the difficulties in getting new people into the taxi business. It involves a big outlay of money and things like that mitigate against them. Is there anything we can do to improve that and ensure that we have a proper pipeline?
