No chance of working for them, if you read the LC in full they're on about stopping plate transfers in restricted areas as well. Sussex's cat is quiet cute.. |

The cat is cute. The LC mentioned areas that dereg then re reg from my reading of it. My understanding was, if the area is already restricted and transfers already take place they will continue to do so but if they re-regulate or if transfers do not already take place then they will not be allowed, it was a bit confusing if I'm honest |

But we still go back to the point that Scotland has had that rule for over 30 years. Yet it doesn't stop transfers. |

It would lead to a two tier HC license - but we've already got them in areas with saloons and WAV's. I think if you go to any area that's been recently regulated they'd actually accept a no transfer option as better than deregulation - however - if I want to sell my cab and its beyond the age limit for first license and I cannot transfer the plate with the vehicle - then my vehicle is useless. |

The cat is cute. The LC mentioned areas that dereg then re reg from my reading of it. Have to agree with "187ums". 7. We propose that in any areas where the licensing authority chooses to implement new quantity restrictions, vehicle licences would not be transferable, meaning that licences would not have a saleable value. In areas that already have quantity restrictions, transfers would continue (and therefore licences could still have a value), but we will recommend that the Secretary of State and Welsh Ministers should consider the future of licence transfers. (Quote from LC Website - my spelling correction.) Plate values will probably be phased out I should think. This will give a new problem - lottery for issue is a problem - Muslims would not like it. Auctions - only big firms would end up with plates and if "Company" owned would never come back to the LA for re-issue. Waiting list - big firms would take 20 places on the list (or more) and end up with all the plates. I could go on, but I think you have the idea. |

And all the above is why Plan A should have been kept. But I'm not sure that's a universal viewpoint.

I take it you've never been in a taxi in either Leeds, Manchester or Cardiff then? |

Muslims do not like "Lottery Allocation" as it is considered to be gambling. I am not suggesting that no Muslim ever gambles - but only one practising Muslim who does not condone gambling proves the point. |
