The SPD in Leipzig is pushing for the reintroduction of minimum fares for ride-hailing services such as Uber. In a motion in the city council, the city administration is called upon to issue a new, legally secure general decree, the parliamentary group announced.
"With our motion, we would like to encourage the City of Leipzig and the Lord Mayor to issue a legally binding decree that ensures that the costs of cab rides in Leipzig are calculable for all citizens - and above all that these services remain available," explained Anja Feichtinger, Chairwoman of the parliamentary group.
