Proceeding contribution from Nickie Aiken (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 21 January 2022. It occurred during Debate on bill on Taxis and Private Hire Vehicles (Safeguarding and Road Safety) Bill.


Taxis and Private Hire Vehicles (Safeguarding and Road Safety) Bill

I agree with what my hon. Friend is saying about ensuring the safety of women and girls on public transport, whether in taxis or otherwise. Does she agree that it is incredibly important that we ensure that the Mayor of London gets the night tube up and running, and takes on the unions that are preventing this from happening, to ensure that women and girls, whether they are working in the night-time economy in London—60% of employees in the night-time economy in London are women—or enjoying a night out, can get home safely?
