Dear Mr O’Riordan,

 

TfL Ref: FOI-1309-1718

 

Thank you for your email received on 15 August 2017 asking for information
about private hire driver dismissals.

 

Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of
the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our Information Access Policy. You
asked:

 

“In relation to my previous FOI-1179-1718 please provide me a breakdown of
driver dismissals submitted by the name of operator, between 01/09/16 -
31/10/16, for clarification I do not want the name of driver but how many
driver dismissal forms TfL received between these dates per operator.”

 

In the time period stipulated Transport for London (TfL) received 56
PHV/105 forms notifying TfL of a driver’s dismissal. Driver dismissal
forms are recorded against the driver licence record, and the form
includes a note of which operator licensee submitted the form.

 

The table below documents the operators that submitted PHV/105 forms
during this period:
