Speakers

Transcript

28 Mr Zainal Sapari asked the Minister for Transport (a) whether measures taken to manage the indiscriminate parking arising from the shared bicycle schemes have produced effective results; and (b) under what specific situation will LTA consider stronger regulatory measures to avoid the situation faced by other countries where the shared bicycles have been a public liability in causing disamenities.

Mr Khaw Boon Wan: This Parliamentary Question was addressed in a combined reply on bicycle-sharing on 5 February 2018. [Please refer to "Measures to Reduce Indiscriminate Parking of Shared Bicycles", Official Report, 5 February 2018, Vol 94, Issue 58, Oral Answers to Questions section.]

My Ministry will be proposing legislative amendments later this month to put in place a licensing framework for bicycle-sharing operators.
