answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>The Government response to the Task and Finish Group report published on 12 February 2019 advised that the recommendation in respect of providing a statutory definition of plying for hire would not be taken forward as it would not provide a practical improvement on the current position.</p><p> </p><p>The Law Commission came to this view in accordance with the advice received from a panel of distinguished licensing lawyers convened specifically for the purpose of discussing reform of plying for hire. The main reason for this conclusion was that whether a driver is plying for hire in particular circumstances is a matter of fact and degree that a court must consider. The Department regularly monitors cases but does not consider that any recent cases necessitate a change in approach.</p><p> </p><p>Private hire vehicles are already only permitted to carry passengers when a booking has been made through a licensed operator.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Norfolk answering member printed George Freeman question first answered 09/09/2019 15:26:44 answering member 4020 label Biography information for George Freeman

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/08/2019 answer text <p>Consumer protections already apply to online traders operating directly or as a third party through a platform.</p><br /><p>The Online Harms White Paper sets out the Government's plan to establish a statutory duty of care to make companies take more responsibility for the safety of their users and tackle harm caused by content or activity on their services. We have consulted on our proposals for the new duty of care to apply to companies and other bodies that allow users to share or discover user-generated content or interact with each other online.</p><br /><p>Companies in scope of the regulatory framework will be held to account for tackling a broad range of harmful and illegal content or activity on their services. However, where there is already an effective regulatory framework, this will be excluded from scope to avoid duplication.</p><br /><p>The Online Harms White Paper consultation closed on 1 July. The Government will publish its response later this year.</p> answering member constituency Boston and Skegness answering member printed Matt Warman question first answered 05/08/2019 10:10:00 answering member 4361 label Biography information for Matt Warman
