The DfT have launched a consultation note on what is, and more importantly, what isn't a licensed Private Hire Vehicle.

Well worth a read, and a response to the DfT if you think they have got it wrong.

The 1976 Act precludes Wedding and Funeral cars from the definition of a PH.

If the government wanted all those other vehicles now to be defined as not PH, then why didn't they a) do it then, or b) do it now.

We don't need guidance we need straight forward laws.

Guidance creates a haze, a mist, a miasma.

Nothing is clear, no one knows where to go and which way to turn.

That in turn creates confusion and confusion creates work for those who have created the haze, mist and miasma and more work for others.

Did you never watch 'Yes Minister'?
