Tommy Broughan (Dublin North East, Labour)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss an issue of national importance and concern, namely, the need for the Minister for Transport to make an urgent statement to the House on the Goodbody report into the taxi industry, particularly in light of the current crisis in that sector and the continuing adverse impact this is having on incomes, working conditions and health and safety standards for taxi workers, on ongoing massive disruption to services for those who use taxis and on his plans to reform the dysfunctional and failing regulation system for the taxi sector.
