TAXI’S
•Very large contracts are awarded by the state on an annual basis to Taxi operators. In the tender process for the awarding of these contacts, considerable extra weighting should be given to Taxi operators with accessible vehicles.
•The retention of the €1m subsidy scheme currently awarded to taxi operators, who purchase accessible vehicles, should be managed by the National Transport Authority to increase a nationwide spread of accessible taxis.
•Target of 15% of all taxis to be accessible by 2020. Currently only 5% of fleet is accessible

I don't think we'll get PUC. While mytaxi advise that it's the biggest complaint drivers have, neither Joe Heron nor the erm see it as an issue. Look at the bigger issues, last year three mytaxi drivers retired for every new driver.

Indeed. That's the kinda commitment we need to back mytaxi. Forget about the idiots standing out in the rain trying to give you full fare without any commission.
