Meeting: 11/10/2016 - Environment and Licensing Committee (Item 42)

Application for the renewal of Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Drivers Licence - DM

Report of Corporate Director - David Wakelin

Minutes:

Consideration was given to a report of the Corporate Director, which had been circulated prior to the meeting, regarding an application to renew a Joint Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver’s Licence from DM.

 

DM 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.

 

RESOLVED:

 

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

 

DM was advised of her right to appeal against the decision of the Committee.
