In making its decision, the Committee applied the Council’s approved Policy and Guidelines.  On the basis of what it heard, the Committee was satisfied on balance that no exceptional circumstances existed which warranted departure from this policy.

 

RESOLVED:

 

To refuse AI’s application for a renewal of Joint Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver’s Licence on the grounds that he is not a fit and proper person.
