Private Hire Vehicles In Reading

EDM number 554 in 2004-05, proposed by Jane Griffiths on 19/01/2005.

That this House congratulates just Cars of Reading for being the first private hire company in the town to fit door signs on its minicabs so that people know they are getting into a licensed car with a licensed driver; congratulates Reading Borough Council on insisting that all the 500 private hire vehicles in Reading should have such signs by April; and takes the view that such measures will protect the public from unwittingly getting into unlicensed vehicles which has too often ended in tragedy.

This motion has been signed by a total of 14 MPs.
