PROPOSALS to loosen the grip of the main taxi companies over the Sydney taxi market have been rejected by the state government.

The decision has helped consolidate Reg Kermode's Cabcharge domination over electronic payments in taxis, ruling out a plan to link the state's proposed public transport smart-card with cabs.

A cross-party inquiry into the NSW taxi system this year made 59 recommendations to tackle the ''significant need'' to sharpen the competitiveness and viability of the taxi industry.

In its response to the inquiry, the state government supported 27 recommendations, rejected nine, and offered qualified or tentative support for the rest.

The rejected proposals go to some of the most substantive issues in the industry, including the consolidation and cost of taxi licences, and the 10 per cent levy charged on EFTPOS and credit card payments in cabs.
