The regulation of the taxi industry, including fees payable in respect of licensing, is a matter for the National Transport Authority as provided for under Section 34 of the Taxi Regulation Act 2003. I have referred the Deputy's Question to the authority for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days. I recently announced the Terms of Reference of a review of the taxi sector in line with the Programme for Government commitment. This review will examine a range of matters including the current regulatory policy and practices and the administration of taxi licences.
