243. Deputy Mark Ward asked the Minister for Transport the number of taxi drivers that applied for the WAV grant in 2023, 2024 and to date in 2025; the number that were successful; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [51186/25]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry, including the collection and publication of statistics regarding the wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV) grant, is a matter for the independent transport regulator, the National Transport Authority (NTA), under the provisions of the Consolidated Taxi Regulation Acts 2013 and 2016. I have no role in the day-to-day operations of the SPSV sector.
Accordingly, I have referred your question to the NTA for direct reply. Please advise my private office if you have not received a reply within 10 working days.
