s 32 Emergency directives
32.—(1) Subject to subsection (2), the LTA may, and in accordance with subsections (3), (4), (5) and (6), give such emergency directives as may be necessary to alleviate or minimise any risk —(a) of death of, or a serious injury to, any individual from the provision of any point‑to‑point passenger transport service; or (b) of damage to any property from the provision of any point‑to‑point passenger transport service. (2) The LTA must not make any emergency directive unless it is impracticable in the circumstances of the particular case for the LTA to make or amend any Regulations to effectively alleviate or minimise the risk concerned. (3) The LTA may give an emergency directive made under this section to all or any of the following, individually or as a class:(a) a licensee; (b) an exempt ride‑hail service operator; (c) a provider of a street‑hail service or ride‑hail service which is exempt from section 9(1) or 10(1) (as the case may be) by an order under section 52. (4) In making an emergency directive under this section, it is not necessary for the LTA to give any person who may be affected by the directive a chance to be heard before the directive is given. (5) An emergency directive may be in force for a period not exceeding 6 months unless earlier revoked under subsection (6), and may be renewed by the LTA once only for a further period not exceeding 6 months. (6) The LTA may, at any time when any emergency directive is in force, revoke the emergency directive by giving notice of that revocation in the same manner as the directive was given. (7) So far as any emergency directive is inconsistent with the Regulations, the emergency directive prevails.
