Minutes:

The Director of Central Services and Monitoring Officer reported that no returns had been received in respect of the consultation on proposed changes to the existing Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Licensing Policy which had been undertaken between 1 April and 16 May 2014.  He reminded Members that Appendix 1 of the current policy “Good Conduct for Licensed Drivers” had been rewritten to reflect the focus on the aspiration to achieve high level of customer service and expressed disappointment at the lack of response to the consultation.  The Committee noted that, if adopted at Council on 4 November 2014, the new Policy would come into effect on 1 December 2014. 

 

RECOMMENDED:  That the proposed changes to the Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Licensing Policy, as set out at Annex 1 to the report, be approved.
