Transport services licensing act 1989

The Transport Services Licensing Act 1989 (as amended to 1997) sets out the licensing requirements for commercial transport operators; except rail services which are now covered under the Railways Act 2005. The licensing requirements in this Act are to be replaced with amendments to the Land Transport Act 1998 once the associated Land Transport Rules are ready.
