Taxi strike in Pisa 24 November 2021
Even in Pisa the taxi drivers stop from 8 to 22 on November 24th. The day is that of the national strike called by the trade unions against the liberalizations envisaged by the competition bill which, according to taxi drivers, will further deregulate the sector in favor of multinationals.
“The competition bill in fact opens up to competition, such as Uber to give an example, by crushing taxi and NCC services which, to date, law with regulated rates – say CNA – the category of taxi drivers would thus be settled yet another hard blow, after a year and a half of pandemic, with significant economic damage. The taxi drivers, therefore, the day after tomorrow will cross their arms from 8 to 22 throughout the country “.
“Without consultation there is no future for the 30 thousand taxi licenses and the 80 thousand NCC licenses, all Italian craft enterprises – intervenes Claudio Sbrana, provincial and regional president of CNA Tassisti -. As CNA we ask for the immediate reopening of consultation tables, to understand the objectives of the interventions and for the shared definition of the implementation decrees still lacking today. Finally, we ask for the excerpt of art. 8 of the Competition Bill “.
The ‘social’ transport service for the elderly, the handicapped and the sick remains guaranteed throughout the duration of the detention.
