• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Will you commit to expanding the TaxiCard platform to allow other TfL-licensed black cab operators or apps — such as Gett, Sherbet, or FreeNow — to accept TaxiCard bookings and register eligible vehicles for LTN exemptions?

• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Has TfL or London Councils conducted an equality impact assessment on the current administration of the TaxiCard scheme, particularly with regard to access discrimination against passengers using non-ComCab black cabs?

• Reference: 2025/1525
• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Do you believe it is fair or legal that only ComCab drivers are currently able to receive automatic LTN exemptions, while other black cab drivers transporting equally disabled passengers are issued Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs)?

• Reference: 2025/1524
• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Why is ComCab (owned by Addison Lee) currently the sole platform through which the London TaxiCard scheme operates, despite thousands of other fully licensed black cab drivers operating across the capital?

• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Will you engage with Hackney Council and other London boroughs to ensure that all licensed London taxis — regardless of platform affiliation — are granted equal access through Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs) when carrying disabled or vulnerable passengers, not just those affiliated with ComCab?

• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Given TfL’s responsibility for regulating London’s taxi fleet, how does it plan to ensure that drivers are not left with vehicles that are unaffordable to repair due to LEVC’s lack of support?

• Reference: 2025/1521
• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Has TfL raised concerns with LEVC about its failure to honour previous commitments regarding post-warranty support? If so, what was LEVC’s response?

• Reference: 2025/1520
• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Many drivers feel that LEVC’s approach to post-warranty support mirrors the poor customer service previously seen under LTI (the company LEVC took over). What assurances can TfL provide that taxi drivers will not face the same long-term reliability and financial issues they experienced with LTI vehicles?

• Reference: 2025/1519
• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

What timeline does TfL have for reviewing and approving additional electric taxi models to ensure drivers are not left reliant on a manufacturer that does not adequately support its customers?

• Reference: 2025/1518
• Question by: Hina Bokhari OBE
• Meeting date: 22 May 2025

Given LEVC’s failure to support drivers and the financial risks associated with owning a TX, will TfL now consider approving alternative electric taxi models to increase competition and provide drivers with more choice?
