I have a specific question in relation to taxis. It arises from a representation I received but it is also general point as well and it relates to the decal symbol that one is obliged to display on a taxi. Taxi drivers seem to be obliged to display these 24 hours a day. According to the representations I have received, it has serious implications for their insurance. Could the Department clarify that for me? Why can they not remove it or use a magnetic system where that could come off when they are using the taxi for family purposes?
