Mr Dennis Tan Lip Fong  asked the Minister for Transport in each year of the past five years, how many private hire cars registered by businesses for ride hailing services were sold to individuals or otherwise converted out of the chauffeured Private Hire Car scheme, less than three years after they were first acquired by such businesses. 

Reply by Minister for Transport Chee Hong Tat:

1.     The Ministry of Transport will be sharing more details regarding the review of the point-to-point transport sector at the upcoming Committee of Supply debate, and this question will be addressed then.
