The association recently met with VOSA, the Police and the Department for Transport in London where they discussed an accord on possible legislation governing the safe and legal operation of vehicles up to and including eight passenger seats, and from nine to sixteen seats.

Full details of the meeting will not been revealed until proposals have been placed in front of the minister. The NLCA feels it will soon be able to offer definitive and specific advice on both the current interpretation of the rules, and also major changes which will occur early next year affecting both up to eight passenger and nine to sixteen passenger limousines.

The gathering follows a successful meeting some months ago in Bradford when the association and agencies met in Bradford to start off the discussions on licensing.
