Editorial notes

Additional context

The body copy below lets editors capture nuance, edge cases, or source clarifications without turning the page into a wall of text.

Because operator conditions change, maintain a standing review process for policy and compliance updates.

Planning note

Taxi and PHV pathways are policy-led and can involve multiple instruments rather than one static grant. Fleet-level planning is usually required, so the best result comes from monitoring policy cycles rather than waiting for a one-off announcement.
