Upon investigation, updated responses were received from a small number of licensing authorities affecting the corresponding table. The following have been revised to include this newly updated data, along with a further update to include the latest local government structures and names:

  • updated geography structures and names in tables TAXI0104, TAXI0105, TAXI0108, TAXI0109, TAXI0110, TAXI0111, TAXI0112, TAXI0113, TAXI0118
