I have a query about the VAT treatment of holders of multiple taxi licences. It is a little uncertain, but there is concern among taxi drivers that there has been a change in the VAT treatment, which could result in drivers who hire taxi licences from those with multiple licences having to pay 23% more. That would be a huge hit for taxi drivers because it would mean having to earn 23% more in order for their earnings to stand still as regards the package they hire from holders of multiple licences. Does Mr. Cody know anything about this? Can he shed any light on it? Is there a reason for taxi drivers to be concerned?
