HC Deb 01 March 1991 vol 186 cc621-2W
Miss Hoey

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what regulations govern the licensing of minicabs and their drivers.

Mr. McLoughlin

I assume that the hon. Member's question relates to the position in London. All London's minicabs and their drivers must operate within general motor vehicle regulations and traffic law. No specific licensing system is applicable to this group.
