The licensing of small public service vehicles, including taxis, is currently governed by the Road Traffic (Public Service Vehicles) Regulations 1963 to 2002. Under these regulations, small public service vehicle licences are granted and renewed by individual local licensing authorities. Information regarding the number of licensed taxis in each of the years 2000-04, based on information received by my Department from individual local licensing authorities, is indicated in the following table. Information on 2005 is not currently available.
