  • Taxis in London

    • Reference: 2021/1202
    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2021
    Given that the black cab taxi fleet has now shrunk to less than 14,000 vehicles and many drivers are struggling to earn a living, let alone buy a new electric wheelchair accessible taxi for more than £60,000, do you think the black cab has a future in London?

  • Taxis and wheelchair accessibility

    • Reference: 2021/1203
    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2021
    Are you aware that less than 0.5% (half a percent) of all private hire vehicles are wheelchair accessible (and most of those are school run mini buses)? What will you do to see that London’s ageing and disabled population can get around if there are no purpose built wheelchair accessible taxis in the future, because they’ve been priced out of the market?

  • Uber

    • Reference: 2021/1206
    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2021
    Uber maintained for a long period of time that the acceptance of private hire bookings by a licensed London PHV Operator acting as agent for drivers would comply with the regulatory regime. Given the recent Appeal Court ruling that Uber drivers are employees, does the mayor believe that Uber have been operating in London outside of the PHV regulatory regime since TfL granted them an Operator Licence in 2012?
