The regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry is a matter for the National Transport Authority (NTA) under the provisions of the Taxi Regulation Act 2013. The NTA also has statutory responsibility for the development of public transport infrastructure in the Greater Dublin Area. On that basis, the NTA are best placed to advise taxi drivers on any changes to access in relation to the Dublin City area due to the Luas Cross City project.

I have referred your query to the NTA for direct reply to you. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within 10 working days.
