Time for the sub/satellite office to go...

Whilst we wait for the recently announced review of sub/satellite mini-cab offices to be completed you can rest assured that the RMT London Taxi branch is working hard to sort this mess out.

We have requested a list of all sub/satellite offices from the Taxi Private Hire directorate and we will be visiting many of these premises ourselves. Collecting intelligence and collating information so that we build up a solid case against the biggest threat to our right to ply for hire since the inception/creation of the mini-cab.

Only the RMT have the will and the resources to challenge TFL and the policy that has created "illegal ranks" of PHV's all over the capital.

Join online at www.rmt.org.uk or pop into George Vyse's office at Great Suffolk Street Taxi centre and request an application form.

PS. We would also like to inform you all that satellite offices will not be closed by TFL/TPH.The review will only seek to tighten up the lax rules that are unenforceable now.
