Summary

The Licensing Applications Sub-Committee of Reading Council is scheduled to convene on 23 September 2025 to address several licensing matters. These include applications for Hackney Carriage Vehicle Driver's Licences, Private Hire Vehicle Driver's Licences, and a motion to exclude the press and public from certain discussions.

Hackney and Private Hire Vehicle Licences

The sub-committee is scheduled to consider reports regarding applications for Hackney Carriage Vehicle Driver's Licences and Private Hire Vehicle Driver's Licences. This includes both new applications and potential suspensions or revocations of existing licences.

Exclusion of Press and Public

The agenda for the meeting includes a motion to exclude members of the press and public during the consideration of certain items. The stated reason for this exclusion is that the discussions are likely to involve the disclosure of exempt information as defined in the Local Government Act 1972. The specific section cited is Part 1 of Schedule 12A, which pertains to information that is considered confidential or commercially sensitive.
