I want the council to make a bylaw which would make it illegal for a taxi to operate within the borough without CCTV installed
The Issue
In light of the grooming scandal which shook the town I think it essential that all taxis operating within the borough are fitted with CCTV, in order to protect children and also the drivers themselves.
Cost is not a reason for this not to happen
I asked this question of the council and they have replied that they're are waiting to see what happens in Rotherham before they act here.
I do not think this is good enough and want the council to take a lead in the fight to prevent this happening again
