Subject to Section 6 of the Aviation Regulation Act 2001, the Commission for Aviation Regulation is independent in the exercise of its functions. As this question relates to operational matters under these functions, I have referred the Deputy's question concerning court prosecutions and fines to the Commission for direct reply. I would ask the Deputy to notify my office if he has not received a reply within ten working days.

I believe the Deputy is referring to the National Transport Authority (NTA). The regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry is a matter for the NTA under the provisions of the Taxi Regulation Act 2013.

Accordingly, I have referred the Deputy's question to the NTA for direct reply to him. I would ask the Deputy to notify my office if he has not received a reply within 10 days.
