Order of Business

Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein)
I am asking about legislation which I hope will be forthcoming and which would address the appalling state of the taxi industry, the high rate of suicides among taxi drivers and the failure of the taxi regulator to deal with the issue to date. The Minister has refused to meet with delegations from the various taxi representative associations. Is the Taoiseach aware of the circumstances? Is there any intention to introduce a taxi regulator (amendment) Bill which, hopefully, would deal with some of the shortfalls in the industry and the way it is regulated?
