Taxi Regulation Bill 2003: Committee Stage.
While I understand the reasoning behind the Senator's amendment, unfortunately primary legislation is not the place for it. However, I urge the Senators to encourage their local authorities to promote the use of accessible taxis the owners of which have gone a long way in changing their taxis. It is hoped that in the future all taxis will be accessible. For the reasons I have mentioned, if this amendment was put in the legislation it would do a disservice to specific areas.
