The Licensing Sub-Committee of Tunbridge Wells Council met on Thursday 4 June 2026. The meeting was scheduled to include a review of a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver's Licence.

Review of Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver's Licence

The committee was scheduled to consider a review of a current Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver's Licence. This item was designated as exempt from public access due to the potential disclosure of information relating to individuals, their financial or business affairs, and matters connected to the prevention, investigation, or prosecution of crime. The report pack provided to the committee contained appendices labelled A through G, which likely contained the detailed information pertinent to this review. The Local Government Act 1972, specifically Schedule 12A, outlines the grounds for excluding the public from such discussions.

The meeting agenda also included standard procedural items such as the Chair's Introduction and Declarations of Interest. The Chair's Introduction was intended to cover procedural matters, while the Declarations of Interest item was for members to declare any interests in accordance with the Members' Code of Conduct.
