This report summarises the content of agenda item 6 which, in the opinion of the proper officer, contains exempt information within one of the categories in Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972. It is a matter for the Sub-Committee to determine whether the press and public should be excluded from the meeting during consideration of these documents.

The Sub-Committee agreed to exclude the press and public from the meeting during consideration of agenda item 6 because consideration of these matters in public would disclose information falling within paragraphs 1, 2 and 5 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 as specified in agenda item 5 (Exclusion of press and public) and, in all the circumstances of the cases, the Sub-Committee considered that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighed the public interest in disclosing the information.

The purpose of this report is to request that the Licensing Sub-Committee consider an appeal against the revocation of a dual Hackney Carriage and Private Hire driver licence.

Discussion:

The Licensing Sub Committee considered an appeal against the revocation of a Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Driver Licence.

Decision:

After careful consideration of the written evidence and the representations made at the meeting, the Sub-Committee upheld the appeal against the revocation of the Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Driver Licence and reinstated the Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Driver Licence.
