Driver – SAH

The Head of Environmental Health Services submitted a new application from driver SAH for a Dual Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Drivers Licence.  The application process revealed several convictions that fell within the Councils guidelines for the relevance of convictions and which had not been declared.

 At a previous meeting of the Public Protection Committee (11/06/2018) members had been concerned at the number of offences committed by the applicant but decided to grant a 12 month temporary licence and the applicant was reminded, in writing, of the need to ensure that he was familiar with the rules and procedure of Council Policy letter dated (12/06/2018).

Driver SAH attended the meeting and explained the circumstances of the offences.

The Committee carefully considered the information and taking in account the previous warning given to the applicant relating to the need to declare the offences in line with Council policy and decided to refuse the application

Resolved:     That the application from driver SAH be refused.
