LTFRB approves technical working group
for Grab, Uber but mum on July 26 arrest order

THE Land Transportation Franchising Regulatory Board (LTFRB) has approved the creation of a technical working group (TWG) to address regulations on accrediting drivers for transport network companies (TNCs) although it did not say whether it would enforce its decision to arrest unregistered or “colorum” vehicles starting on July 26.

“The Board has welcomed the creation of a TWG to help address the demand of such mode of public transport in a rational, comprehensive and systematic manner. We expect the TNCs to be candid, accurate, complete and transparent in submitting all the data and information the Board will need in addressing the issues,” LTFRB Chairman Martin Delgra 3rd said in a statement on Tuesday.
