Conditions of Licences
The Authority is not permitted to place conditions on a Hackney Carriage Driver’s Licence other than those enforceable by legislation or included in the Council’s Byelaws. A broader spectrum of conditions can be applied to a Private Hire Driver’s Licence.
A Hackney Carriage Driver is still bound by the requirements of the application and must meet the fit and proper test. When a Hackney Carriage Driver is driving a Hackney Carriage they are bound by the conditions attached to the Hackney Carriage Vehicle Licence.
