We answered

Our ref: FOI-0858-2324/GH

Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 20 June 2023 asking for information about Taxi licences.

Your request has been considered under the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and our information access policy. I can confirm that we do hold the information you require. You asked for:
All vehicles registered as either a Taxi, Hackney Carriage or for Private Hire use (including the registration number, make & model) between 1st November 2018 and 1st November 2019.

Taxi and Private Hire vehicles are licensed on an annual basis and where there is a period of relicensing some data in the vehicle records are overwritten to reflect the new licence. Therefore, we are only able to provide a snapshot of all licensed taxi and private hire vehicles on a specific date, rather than during a time period.

We answered a previous Freedom of Information request, which provides this data during the date period you have requested. This response provides the requested information as of 1 October 2019:

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for some reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

If you are not satisfied with this response please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.

Yours sincerely
