So will these drivers be declaring this subsidised income and also declaring to their insurance providers of their intention to become a PSV...or will they be exempt from all the malarky surrounding taxi licencing that applies to us suckers?

Hal if they are allowed carry paying pax with no implication on their insurance premium there will be WW3 in the taxi world.

I cannot see a lot of folk waiting outside the local pub at 11:30 on a week night to bring the few drunk fuckers home.

You need to be a bit mental to work nights in the taxi game, no sane person would do I for a few measly quid and a grant for their insurance.

Why would you be waiting outside empty pubs .Young country people dont go to the pub they smoke dope and sit in their room wanking to porn .The older ones stay at home drinking 12 Euro a bottle whiskey from Lidl .The Rural Hack is to provide HSE transport for pensioners to day care and kids to school for as cheap as possible .The rural pub argument is bogus .

And NTA subsidised insurance premiums paid for by our licence fees.

If culchies are getting subsidies so they can imbibe their drug of choice, maybe urban taxi drivers should get subsidies to drive junkies on their drug runs.

What's good for the goose should be good for the gander?

You would think Publicans in the spirit of humanity would provide transport for the drunk revellers.
Morons peddling the last legal drug, all closing at exactly the same time .
Going so far as getting late licences to prevent nightclubs getting their business.
Then they hurl all the punters on to the street and complain about the lack of transport.
I fucking hate Publicans, they own the Politicians.

Exactly SB......but they also now have the NTA subsidising insurance from taxi licence fees.....and as we know the taxi industry is very financially viable for the NTA,when the Taxi Regulator was subsumed into the NTA it brought with it €20 million....which disappeared into fukin thin air....at a PAC meeting,the geezer from the NTA couldn't account for where that money went to only to say salaries for employees,no fukin records....imagine any of us giving Revenue a shrug of the shoulders and some bullshit fairytale!!

Some of them have to get to a pub to buy their gear in the country.
