//Religious considerations
Guide dog and other assistance dog owners should not be refused access to taxis or minicabs on religious grounds:
Religious or cultural beliefs have often been cited as a reason for refusal to carry guide dogs and other assistance dogs by taxi. However, it should be noted that there is a legal requirement to accept the carriage of guide dogs and other assistance dogs and such beliefs are not a defence against non-compliance.
“However, this is a sensitive aspect of the access issue and tact should be used by all involved. The Muslim Shariat Council have clarified that Muslims should accept assistance dogs in their businesses.” (EHRC, 2013)
That position has also been confirmed by the Public Carriage Office (PCO) which is responsible for taxi and PHV licensing in London:
“Guidance from the Muslim Shariat Council in 2002 confirmed that trained assistance dogs may accompany disabled people in taxis and private hire vehicles managed or driven by Muslims. The Council’s guidance helps to clarify religious law and prevent any possible conflict with secular law.” (PCO Notice 01/06)
