WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR TRANSPORT AND TECHNICAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY G.C.L. BAUDAINS OF ST. CLEMENT
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 29th JANUARY 2013
Question
Would the Minister advise whether he is content with the present service supplied by rank taxis and, if not, would he outline what he intends to do about it and when?
Answer
As the Minister for Transport and Technical Services, I have set out in detail all matters relating to taxi regulation which I consider to be issues of concern in my Green Paper consultation Taxi Regulatory Reform' published March 2012.
As a result of that consultation, a policy White Paper is in the process of being developed which will set out the reforms I intend to present to the States for their consideration this year. Until that White Paper is published it would not be appropriate for me to indicate my policy intentions.
The States' Sustainable Transport Policy charges me to introduce improvements to the taxi service to provide a simplified system based upon what the public needs by 2015.
