Original consultation
Consultation description
The Department for Transport (DfT) has issued best practice guidance on taxi and private hire vehicle (PHV) licensing since 2006 to assist local authorities that have responsibility for the regulation of this sector.
This has recently been updated to take into account stakeholder views and changes in the way the sector operates.
DfT is seeking views from the public, licensing authorities and the taxi and PHV industry on the proposed updated version.
