To allow rear wheelchair access taxis in Bassetlaw

I am a small family run business owner in Bassetlaw, north Nottinghamshire, on the border of Sherwood Forest.

Over the last 10 years Bassetlaw Council have licensed private hire vehicles with rear wheelchair access, with no problems or complaints from customers, I recently applied to license a vehicle with the same access for public hire and they have refused.

This decision by the council makes no sense, they are restricting my human rights to carry out my business without justified reason, they are stopping wheelchair bound customers having a choice of how they travel.

I ask you to support my plight and sign the petition and stop this ridiculous situation.
