Decision:
Decision
To grant a Private Hire Vehicle Driver’s Licence as applied for.
Reasons for the decision
The Sub-Committee considered an application for a PHVDL from the applicant.
The applicant was refused a PHVDL in 2024 but was encouraged to come back after five years had elapsed from his conviction. That period has now passed.
The Committee were assured by the applicant’s disclosure that since his conviction he has been married and become a father, both of which have changed his responsibilities and views on matters.
The Committee hopes that the applicant remains free of convictions as future convictions would likely to prove detrimental to his licences with this authority.
