Application for a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Drivers Licence - JSL

Report of Corporate Director - David Wakelin

Minutes:

Consideration was given to a report by Corporate, David Wakelin, regarding a Joint Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver’s Licence from JSL.

 

JSL attended the meeting and addressed the Committee.

 

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.

To refuse JSL’s application for a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver's Licence on the grounds that he is not considered to be a fit and proper person.

 

JSL was advised of his right to appeal against the decision of the Committee.
