LICENSING INVESTIGATIONS AND PANEL HEARINGS SOLICITORS MANCHESTER
All taxi drivers, private hire and black cabs must be licensed by the local council. Before they issue a taxi licence the council need to be satisfied that the applicant is fit and proper to transport fare-paying passengers.
If during a licence application, a renewal or during the term of a licence a local authority is made aware of circumstances that cause them concern they may carry out an investigation into any taxi offences they believe may have been committed. Illegally plying for hire, receiving points on their licence, violence and dishonesty are examples of why a council would investigate.
Following an investigation, you could face disciplinary action or your suitability to hold a taxi licence could be determined by a panel hearing. If a panel hearing is to take place they should notify you of the date, time and place of the hearing.
At your taxi panel hearing, the committee has guidance they must consider when considering the case brought before them. They have the power to suspend or revoke taxi licences if they see fit to.
