A member of my constituency recently waited nearly 10 months from original application to grant of license for a private hire license. This led to loss of livelihood and the threat of losing his family home. Staff dealing with applications are currently facing a huge backlog, which in turn is causing financial hardship to those making the applications. What steps is the Mayor taking to ensure that this backlog is dealt with quickly and there are enough Transport for London staff in the department to deal with demand?
