The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has issued new guidance to local authorities (LAs) on hackney carriage and private hire licensing.
In an open letter to LAs, the CMA warns that "some licensing conditions may restrict or distort competition", including those that limit the number of providers in a market or restrict the ability of drivers to work for more than one taxi operator.
