In a joint statement, the trio said it has found common ground on what are ‘’fair and rational consequences’’ for most of the operating license condition transgressions.

‘’Underpinning this exercise is the mutual priority to address fundamental challenges in the transport sector and deliver functional, reliable, safe mobility for our commuters,’’ read the statement.
