Taxis: Conditions of Employment
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent assessment she has made of the adequacy of working conditions for private hire drivers.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
The Department for Transport discusses a range of issues with representatives from the taxi and private hire vehicle sector. Employment law and working practice policy, including working conditions, is outside of my Department’s remit and is owned by the Department for Business and Trade.
