I am informed by the Garda authorities that the number of people who have been prosecuted each year from 2000 to 2005 for driving a small public service vehicle or taxi without the required licence is set out in the following table. A number of detections in 2005 will result in prosecutions in 2006. Statistics for 2006 are not yet available.
Year | Numbers Prosecuted |
2001 | 46 |
2002 | 99 |
2003 | 68 |
2004 | 63 |
2005* | 27 |
