The sources indicated that the license holders and the order delivery union intend to carry out a sit-in in the event that the regulatory decision is not issued, given that preventing licenses registration of vehicles and bicycles without a legal basis disrupts their interests and the interests of the commercial establishments for which they provide the service, especially restaurants.
