On-demand Transport Industry Reference Group

The purpose of the On-demand Transport Industry Reference Group (OdTIRG) is to:

• provide an effective forum for constructive dialogue between the on-demand transport industry and the Department of Transport (DoT);
• exchange information, understanding and feedback on the status of operational or strategic matters of interest for the on-demand industry; and
• ensure active consultation with DoT regarding on-demand transport industry issues, specifically with the On-demand Transport Policy Intelligence and Education Team.

Read the Terms of Reference below for more information about the OdTIRG.

Membership for the OdTIRG will be sought from representatives across WA, including: 

• Perth metropolitan on-demand booking services (ODBSs);
• regional ODBSs;
• on-demand rank or hail (taxi) and charter drivers;
• wheelchair accessible vehicle operators; and

The selection of members is based on several factors including, but not limited to:

• size and capacity of the services;
• number of drivers (if applicable); 
• customer experience;
• depth of industry knowledge.

Members of the OdTIRG agree to adhere to the guiding principles and roles and responsibilities for members outlined in the OdTIRG Terms of Reference (see below).
