Press Release: Judgment in Case C-518/13. The Queen, on the application of Eventech Ltd v Parking Adjudicator, (intervening parties, the London Borough of Camden and Transport for London)

Allowing London taxis to use bus lanes while prohibiting private hire vehicles from doing so does not appear to involve State aid.

Since taxis are in a factual and legal situation which is distinct from that of private hire vehicles, that permission does not appear to be such as to confer, through State resources, a selective economic advantage.
