Looks like York City Council have rejected the OFT findings.  Oh happy days
A breif conclusion, the report is so serously flawed as to render it worthless and therfore it should be withdrawn. OMG Suspect what are you going to do????

Say if York said that the OFT report was spot on, would that then mean that the whole of the UK would have to follow them? Wishful thinking Nigel, wishful thinking. |

Wishful thinking Nigel, wishful thinking. nobody but nobody follows York, the buildings are ancient as the attitudes its almost a relief they have kicked out the report as they are always but always out of step. the big problem and overiding beef was the refusal of oft to prepare a special copy on rolled parchment. Nige you are bloody desperate to gat any comfort from this. Yorkie |

We will see Geoff The report was outdated before it was published, as I said in another thread, Why do people wait at taxi ranks ? The answer, is because most of them, if not all, have been unable to pre-book a vehicle. This demonstrates the fact that the Private Hire Trade, which is not subject to quantity control, cannot cater for this unmet demand.

But the answer to the PH problem, is to make it safer and more rewarding to be a PH. The answer to the HC problem, is just like OFT said, get rid of the quotas. |

York The city of shat Hackney vehicles with shat attitudes of the drivers. Had reason to spend some time there on a couple of occasions several years back. It really is the city from hell as far as quality taxi services are concerned. |

how many york HC drivers are giving Angela one to keep it regulated in york, the only reason there are Qs at the rank is because they are to p**sed to ring a ph, HCs are only there to pick up the shat at the end of the night |

I wonder if the coucnil will say that the plate price is too high. Or when they survey they will bother with asking those that pay our bills. Or if they will give a specific case for keeping limits. Or manybe they will just say [edited by admin] it and open up.

York HCs are only worried about de limitation because some were maybe foolish enough to pay up to £40,000 for a plate which would be worthless if it was brought in |
