The Public Carriage Office issued the Construction and Licensing of Motor Taxicabs in London: Conditions of Fitness in 2000. (This document is usually referred to as “the Metropolitan Conditions of Fitness.) The Metropolitan Conditions of Fitness are made under the London Cab Order 1934 (S.I. 1934/1346), article 35.

Article 35 of the London Cab Order requires the installation of an approved taximeter. The requirements that must be met by an approved taximeter are set out in the Notice to Owners and Manufacturers of Motor Cabs and Taximeters regarding Taximeters to be used on Taxicabs in the Metropolitan Police District and the City of London, which was issued by the Public Carriage Office in July 1997.
