988. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport further to Parliamentary Question No. 179 of 4 February 2015, and the reply received from the National Transport Authority, his views that it is acceptable that the Agency has refused to publish the submissions it received as part of the public consultation and submission process it engaged in, given that this issue affects the livelihoods and incomes of taxi drivers; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The regulation of the small public service vehicle sector is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) under the provisions of the Taxi Regulation Act 2013.

The NTA is an independent body and therefore a consultation process undertaken by the NTA is a matter for the NTA. I have no function in this.
