Issue details

Revised Fee for Knowledge Test

In March 2018, Cabinet approved changes to the council’s taxi and private hire licensing policy including changes to the council’s fitness assessments for taxi and private hire drivers.

As part of the implementation of the new policy requirements, the previous written knowledge test has been replaced with a practical training day.

The change from a written assessment to a practical training day has necessitated the need to also review the fees that apply.

This report seeks approval from the Director of Environment to adopt the revised fees.
