V. Rawlins (Chairman) Taxi Association

 

From Highland Council
TAXI PHC OPERATOR AND DRIVERS
NOTIFICATION OF CONVICTIONS AND FIXED PENALTIES

I refer to the above and to a meeting of the Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey Licensing Committee which was held on 2th April 2010.
At the meeting Members expressed concern that some taxi/PHC operators and drivers were not notifying the Council of fixed penalties and/or convictions which they had received during the period of their licence.
Condition 18 of the taxi operators and condition 25 of the taxi drivers licence conditions. State that:
The holder of a taxi operator's Licence shall notify the Licensing Authority by letter to The Area Solicitor in his Area within 7 working days of any fixed penalty, conditional offer or conviction in any court relating to him.
The Committee asked that I write to the Associations and the radio companies to ask them to remind their members of these conditions and would therefore be grateful if you could do this.
