Bobby Lynch:

To all Dublin airport permit holders
It has come to our attention that not only are our pleas being ignored in relation to a quarterly payment option for our permit renewals but now it appears that the DAA in their wisdom have decided to create a new taxi operations manual without any driver or driver's representative's input.
It has also been made clear that there will be no landside manager dealing with taxi issues and the DAA has also stated that they will not be dealing with the driver's representatives going forward.
This is obviously a very worrying situation, not only are the DAA demanding that the permit renewals are to be paid at the full rate for 5% of the normal workload, they're insisting on this being paid in one installment of €440.00. Whilst we all agree this is a very difficult business environment it does not befit an organisation such as the DAA to be totally unwilling and intransigent to engage with drivers in relation to the quarterly payment option previously available to drivers in good economic times. Furthermore it is a worrying development for drivers to have no right to representation in the event of conflict resolution going forward.
It is on the record that many drivers have tried as individuals to plead their case to the DAA over the last few weeks to no avail as is also the case with the driver representatives.
In view of the above I implore you to make these facts known to your local political representatives as I think , once known, there will be a very dim view taken of the antics of Mr. Dalton Phillips and his staff at the DAA.
It's in our hands to bring these matters to the attention of our elected representatives.

Whos Bobby Lynch can I ask ?

Cork taxi drivers association.

Thanks Silver.
Presumably everything he said is true??

It seems odd that the DAA will not engage with the reps, when they have done so for years.
Whats behind it ?? Anyone ?? @Bubba ??

For whatever reason, DAA have decided that they will not have an avenue open to engage with any rep body, instead they will contact drivers individually. So instead of sending 4/5 emails and getting 1 to 5 replies, they`ll now send c. 1500 and get who knows how many replies. I think every ethnicity is represented in the Kesh and for the most part, we get along very well. DAA`s position will only serve to consolidate the very good co operation that currently exists within the permit holders. In fact, it would not surprise me in the least if a new body of drivers consisting of 1500 Keshie emerged.

Thanks for your response,all very interesting,if not concerning.
You say that DAA's position will only consolidate the very good co operation etc.. Wasn' that down to the various reps co operating with them though? ( I should note Im no longer with any rep body)
You then go on to say, you wouldnt be surprised if a new body of drivers would emerge.But if the DDA have done away with co operating with the rep bodies currently,what makes you think they will co operate with a "new" group ?
Also wont the current group of reps be put out by this? TTnH, The Fed, NPHTDA, and Colm O Briens group ??

Big Eamo will have a chat with the DAA and say .Look you moronic fucktards .Taxi drivers are willing to pay to park and hand over 15% commission on airport work .Now cop the fuck on you wasters charge two euro per job no permits .Its fucking ridiculous you encouraging taxies to return to town empty and encouraging drivers  to drive out here empty causing huge waste emissions .Taxi drivers showed how much they are willing to pay to pick up in the Port .The Kesh was asleep while Me Taxi proved drivers would pay more .Now the DAA will use that to scrap the permits and push Me taxi out .

I`m sure there would be a few upset if it happened . I`m on record publicly in telling the reps to work together or step down and have drivers nominated from the kesh. There`s quite a bit of arguing between various "reps" which carried on during Landside meetings. Anyways, it`s just an observation and analysis, I think DAA got fed up with repetitive outbursts  and binned the meetings/ contact with reps.

Repetitive outbursts?.....surely not Bubba!!
