Ridesharing Steering Committee

A Ridesharing Steering Committee was formed to provide input into a regulatory model for ridesharing services in the Northern Territory (NT).

The committee submitted to Government for their consideration, a simple and effective model for incorporation into legislation to facilitate ridesharing in the NT.

It ensures:

  • a level playing field between the various commercial passenger vehicle sectors, equivalent to their access to market
  • National Sharing Economy Principles are incorporated into the model as much as practically possible.
