Road Transport (Public Passenger Services) Act 2001

A regulation may provide a system for the licensing of taxis and restricted taxis, including, for example—

matters relating to the giving, refusal or surrender of licences; and

the term (if any) of taxi licences; and

the conditions of licences; and

the circumstances in which a substitute vehicle may be used as a licensed taxi; and

the action that may be taken in relation to licences in circumstances prescribed by regulation, including—

the suspension or cancellation of a licence; and

the imposition of a condition on, or the amendment of a condition of, a licence; and

an order that the holder of a licence pay to the Territory an amount of not more than—

for an individual—$5 000; or

for a corporation—$25 000; and

the reprimanding of the holder of a licence.

The regulations may place different requirements on the person to whom a taxi licence (other than a restricted taxi licence) is issued and a person to whom the licence is hired.
