The regulation of the small public service vehicle (SPSV) industry including taking action to increase the number of wheelchair accessible vehicles in the sector, 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.
Given the NTA's responsibility in this area, 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.
