The Regulatory and Appeals Sub Committee of Boston Council was scheduled to consider an application for a Hackney Carriage Driver and Private Hire Vehicle Driver Licence. The meeting was also scheduled to address the exclusion of the public and press for certain agenda items.

Application for Hackney Carriage Driver and Private Hire Vehicle Driver Licence

The Regulatory and Appeals Sub Committee was scheduled to consider an application for a Hackney Carriage Driver and Private Hire Vehicle Driver Licence. This item was detailed in a report prepared by Anna McDowell, Senior Licensing Officer. The report pack provided extensive documentation related to this application, with pages numbered from 1 to 36. The procedure for this taxi licensing hearing was outlined, which included the presentation of the report by the Senior Licensing Officer, questions from the Sub-Committee, and the opportunity for the licence-holder to present their case. Following these stages, the Sub-Committee was scheduled to retire to consider the report in private and make a decision, which would then be formally notified to the licence-holder.

The meeting was scheduled to take place at the Municipal Buildings, West Street, Boston, PE21 8QR. The panel members for this meeting were scheduled to be Councillor John Baxter, Councillor Stuart Evans, and Councillor Suzanne Welberry. The Chief Executive of Boston Council is Rob Barlow.
