Proceeding contribution from Stephen Pound (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Local Authorities and Transport for London (No. 2) Bill (HL).


London Local Authorities and Transport for London (No. 2) Bill [Lords]

May I open a window into the world of the London MP's surgery? We do get complaints about pedicabs. They operate in other cities, principally Oxford, but my constituents have two objections to them. The first is the potential for a lethal incident, and the second is the absolute lawlessness and scofflaw attitude of the operators. Recruiting them into a trade union when they are not a member of a trade would be extremely difficult. People object to pedicabs and worry about them, and they want action.
