Application to Licence Private Hire Vehicle pdf icon PDF 89 KB

Minutes:

The Head of Legal and Regulatory Services submitted a report, which asked the Sub Committee to consider an application to grant a license for a Private Hire Vehicle.

 

The application was made by Matthew Ashley to licence a Skoda Superb, vehicle registration number CK68 DYA as a private hire vehicle to seat 4 persons. The vehicle was preowned and was first registered at the DVLA on 26 September 2018

 

The meeting was briefly adjourned for Members to inspect the vehicle.

 

Upon recommencing the meeting, the Legal Officer advised members that the current mileage of the vehicle was at 171 miles. She stated that the vehicle fell outside the Private Hire Vehicle Policy approved by the Licensing Committee. The vehicle was not wheelchair accessible, but there were specific policy guidelines in respect of the first licensing of Hackney Carriage Vehicles which fell outside the policy guidelines outlined in paragraph 4.5 of the report. For members’ information there was no service history provided as the requirement for servicing the vehicle has not been reached.

 

RESOLVED:               The Sub-Committee considered the application to license Vehicle Registration number CK68 DYA as a Private Hire Vehicle.

 

Members noted that the application falls outside the Licensing Policy at paragraph 2.1 due to the vehicles age.

 

Members further noted that the Policy at paragraph 2.2 allows it to be relaxed in exceptional circumstances, and examples of these were detailed in paragraph 2.4 of the Policy.

 

Having examined the vehicle, the Sub-Committee felt that the vehicle was exceptional in terms of its quality both interior, exterior and its safety qualities. The Sub-committee therefore granted the license.
