The Miscellaneous Licensing Sub-Committee of Tendring Council was scheduled to consider applications for Hackney Carriage and Private Hire Driver Licences, as well as reviews of existing licences. The meeting was also scheduled to address matters deferred from a previous meeting.

Application for the Renewal of a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver's Licence

The Sub-Committee was scheduled to consider an application for the renewal of a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver Licence. The report pack indicated that the applicant's DVLA driving licence had been endorsed with six penalty points for exceeding the speed limit on two separate occasions. The Sub-Committee was asked to determine if the individual remained a fit and proper person to hold such a licence.

Review of a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver and Hackney Carriage Vehicle Licence

A review of a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver Licence and Hackney Carriage Vehicle Licence was scheduled to be presented to the Sub-Committee. This item had been deferred from the meeting on 16 September 2026 because the individual was unable to attend. The Sub-Committee was to consider whether the individual remained a fit and proper person to continue holding these licences.

Review of a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver Licence

Another item scheduled for review was a Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver Licence. This matter had also been deferred from the meeting on 16 September 2026. Although the individual had confirmed their intention to attend the previous meeting, they did not do so. The Sub-Committee was scheduled to determine if the individual remained a fit and proper person to hold the licence.
