Taxi and rental-car association presses for clear rules: Dialogue with the CDU/CSU parliamentary group
The Taxi and Rental Car Association Germany (TMV) has in Berlin exchanged views with Steffen Bilger, the CDU/CSU parliamentary group's First Parliamentary Secretary in the Bundestag, on political issues. The meeting was attended by TMV President Thomas Kroker and Chief Executive Patrick Meinhardt. The aim was to continue the regular dialogue between the industry and political decision-makers.
Topics of the Discussion
At the heart of the exchange were current transport and industry policy issues. These included the introduction of minimum tariffs and fixed-price corridors in the taxi and rental-car sector, technology-neutral funding of alternative powertrains, and the rejection of a general ban on combustion engines.
Further discussion points included dealing with unfair competition by platform providers such as Uber, as well as criticism of new bureaucratic requirements, such as the planned "Small Qualification".
Bilger's Transport Policy Experience
Steffen Bilger is regarded as a recognized expert in transport policy. He was, among other roles, a member of the Transport Committee, a vice-chairman of the parliamentary group, and the Union's rapporteur for alternative drivetrains. He also chaired the Parliamentary Circle on Electromobility and was State Secretary in the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure.
Ongoing dialogue agreed
Both sides emphasized the importance of close exchange between politics and the small and medium-sized taxi and rental-car sector. As early as the day of his election as the First Parliamentary Secretary, Bilger and Meinhardt had agreed to remain in regular contact. The TMV sees ongoing communication with political decision-makers as a central prerequisite for effectively representing the industry's interests in Berlin. (Source: TMV)
