I propose to take Questions Nos. 245 and 250 together.
The Deputy will be aware that the Commission for Taxi Regulation yesterday published an economic review into the small public service vehicles sector which recommends that a moratorium on the issue of small public service vehicle licences should not be considered. The Commission will now be consulting with the Advisory Council, the sector and the public at large about the implementation of the recommendations made.
