Secretary for Administration and Justice Sonia Chan Hoi Fan said yesterday that the government aimed to finalise the draft of an amendment bill on the city’s taxi sector in the first quarter of next year.
Chan made the remarks while speaking to reporters after attending a closed-door committee meeting in the Legislative Assembly (AL).
Civic leaders and a number of taxi industry groups have criticised the government for its “sluggish” drafting of the amendment bill on the taxi sector, after studying the matter for several years.
