The Taxi Hardship Payments Scheme was established in late 2003 to implement the recommendations of the Report of the Taxi Hardship Panel. The Scheme was formally launched in November 2003 and the final date for receipt of applications was 24 September 2004. The processing and consideration of applications under the Scheme was undertaken independently of my Department by Area Development Management Limited, now known as Pobal. My Department has no details of applications made under the Scheme. I have referred the Deputy's Question to Pobal for direct reply. There are no proposals to reopen the Scheme.
