Which body authorizes and performs taxi license change of ownership?
- The Licensing Authority.
- Correct answer: The Controller of Road Transport.
- The Public Transportation and Railway Authority.
- There is no need for a license-conveyance permit, as it contradicts the freedom of occupation choice.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: The Controller of Road Transport.
Transferring ownership of a taxi license requires a permit, and the Controller of Road Transport is the body that authorizes and performs it. This is a regulated occupation, so the license cannot be passed to someone else without a permit. Freedom of occupation does not remove the need for a permit.
