HC Deb 10 March 1927 vol 203 cc1382-3W
Colonel DAY

asked the Home Secretary how many applications for hackney carriage licences have been refused to applicants for public conveyances for the years 1924, 1925 and 1926 in the County of London?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

I understand that there has been no actual refusal of a licence during the years mentioned, though a number of applications for renewal in the case of motor cabs of old design have been withdrawn on account of inability to comply with the Commissioner's requirements.
