- Meeting date: 17 October 2019
I have been contacted by a taxi driver, who has raised a concern with TfL and the Metropolitan Police, claiming that some apps that are operating in the taxi market are either aiding and abetting a criminal act and benefiting from the proceeds of crime or avoiding their VAT liability. You should be aware of this because the taxi driver has also written to you directly. Do you acknowledge these concerns and have you written to the Metropolitan Police and HMRC to raise these concerns?
