That this House believes that there are growing concerns about cross-border hiring of taxis and private hire vehicles, where drivers obtain licenses in areas with less stringent regulations and then operate in areas with higher standards or greater demand; further believes that this can lead to inconsistent safety and vehicle standards, unfair competition and there is the potential that this is compromising public safety and security; and calls for immediate action to ensure that taxis and private hire vehicles can only be licensed in the area where they operate or where the business and vehicle is permanently located.
