Sorry for the late reply on my thoughts on the proposed taxi fare chart. I was originally unopposed to everything being proposed. However after some more thought I would like to lodge 1 objection with it. Waiting time. I believe the waiting time should be kept as it is at the moment at £24 per hour. I think that increasing it to £36 per hour could be the difference between a lot of customers using or not using taxis. Especially at peak times. I.e school run times in morning or afternoon. Being stick in busy traffic for periods if time could put off people from using us. Other than that I agree with everything. Thanks Michael Kelly
