What rock have you been hiding under, JIT? I'm not sure how much you think NTA raises in licence fess... the cars don't test themselves, tamper proof discs don't grow on trees, fare cards don't print themselves, enforcement and administration personnel aren't volunteers. WAV subsidies and EV grants don't pay for themselves...
NTA is legally obliged to raise the cost of taxi regulation through licence fees. If you want to complain you should be drawing attention to the shortfall and insisting on licence fee increases.
Furthermore, it was taxi drivers, their self-appointed representatives and taxi company bosses that drew NTAs attention to the need for healthier, safer, environmentally friendlier transport initiatives. In fact you, yourself, took to the internet to point out how unsuited taxis are to the new normal... Now you, yourself, are criticising promotion of the very initiatives you demanded?
