Alison Moore AM, Chair of the Transport Committee said,
“Today’s Supreme Court decision on Uber will have consequences for the private hire sector in London. TfL will need to give urgent consideration to what this could mean for transport around the capital in the future.
“While today’s ruling is mainly focused on the employment rights of Uber drivers, this decision may have a knock on effect for transport in the capital. As more details of the impact of this decision emerge, our Committee will be investigating what this means for Londoners and London’s private hire drivers.”
