Taxi Regulation Bill 2003: Committee Stage (Resumed).
The need for this amendment was demonstrated when Michael O'Leary of Ryanair was revealed to have bought a hackney licence for his own private use so he could use bus lanes. This amendment would be a practical step towards ensuring that did not happen again. We do not want people earning a good salary to be in a position to buy a hackney licence and use it to reduce their journey times.
