Taxi Regulation Bill 2003: Committee Stage (Resumed).

 

This case differs from other areas, some of which the Senator mentioned, in that the Commission for Taxi Regulation will be compelled to come before a committee of the Houses. The Senator's concerns are, therefore, addressed. As I stated, nothing is written in stone. It is better to try the approach we have proposed and if for any reason the legislation requires change in the future, this can be done. The advice given by members of an advisory council should not be made public as it could become the subject of misinformation, particularly given the manner in which other issues are reported in certain sections of the media.
