Email Sent To Senior Tfl Staff And Val Shawcross...Re 13,000 PH Drivers Unchecked By DBS

Dear Helen,

On Wednesday, as you know, we met Commissioner, Mike Brown. 

At the meeting I asked for all 13,000 PH drivers who have had to "Re-Apply" for a new DBS check to be stopped from working until new checks have been implemented on the grounds of Public Safety:

You explained that not only did you feel that was not necessary, but also stated to those present that you believe whole heartedly that all those who would reapply, would pass.

The next day on LBC radio, the Mayor gave an interview where he stated the 13k PH drivers "had not" undergone and passed an enhanced DBS ( like every taxi driver must do ).

We are not talking "like for like" here Helen, as you well know and on this new evidence put forward by our Mayor, I again urge you in the name of public safety to suspend every PH who has yet to pass an enhanced DBS from working.

Yours Sincerely

Grant Davis
