Consideration of the Ongoing Suitability of a Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Driver

Minutes:

The Chair welcomed the Licence Holder to the meeting and introductions were made.

 

The Sub-Committee considered the report of the Corporate Director of Neighbourhoods and Climate Change to determine the ongoing suitability of the licence holder to continue to be licensed as a Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Driver (for copy of report, see file of minutes).

 

The Licensing Enforcement Officer was in attendance to present the report and advised Members that the Licence Holder had provided some videos of his vehicle that would be shown to Members during the adjournment. The Licence Holder, Members and the Council’s Solicitor were given the opportunity to ask questions of the Licensing Enforcement Officer.

 

The Licence Holder was then invited to address the Sub-Committee and responded to questions from Members and Officers.

 

After summing up, the Sub-Committee retired to deliberate the application in private at 10.40 am. After re-convening at 10.55 am the Chair delivered the Sub-Committee’s decision.

 

Resolved:  That no further action be taken.
