Gov’t insists on not having cameras inside taxis

The government has insisted that cameras not be installed inside taxis, according to the Third Standing Committee of the Legislative Assembly. Chairman of the Committee Wong Hin Fai noted that more than half of the committee’s members hoped the government would reconsider the proposal. Lawmakers proposed the installation of cameras in the back of taxis at an 8 o’clock position, which would not be allowed to record either the driver’s or the passengers’ faces. However, the government did not provide a reply to the lawmakers.
