RESOLVED – T H A T the Age Policy Guidelines adopted by this Committee be waived on this occasion, and that the vehicle be allowed to progress to the vehicle testing stage of the application process. Reason for decision Having regard to the information provided in the report, to the appended evidence and to the representations at the meeting, and due to the fact that the vehicle would need to pass the relevant safety testing in order to be licensed.
The report was presented by Licensing Team Manager. The Public Protection Licensing Committee had adopted age policy guidelines which detailed how old vehicles could be when first licensed as a hackney carriage or a private hire vehicle. This application for the grant of a private hire vehicle licence fell outside the Policy and therefore the Committee were asked to determine the application. Following their presentation of the report, the Licensing Team Manager advised the following, in response to queries from the Committee: September 09 Minutes and DN (LW) • The Age Policy was in place to raise the standards of vehicles in the fleet. • Similar applications to waive the age policy, that have been presented to Committee recently have been renewal applications, where as this was a new application. • The Applicant was aware of the Age Policy, but had made the decision to apply for this vehicle to be licensed despite the age restrictions in the policy. • As the vehicle was not currently licensed by the Vale of Glamorgan, Officers did not have access to information as to whether the vehicle had been involved in any accidents. However, if the Committee decided to agree to waive the Age Policy, the vehicle would need to pass an MOT, and additional relevant testing at the Council’s Alps Depot. The Chair subsequently advised that they had checked the current MOT certification of the vehicle, which was in place, and valid until August 2026. Committee, having considered the report and all the issues and implications contained therein, subsequently: RESOLVED – T H A T the Age Policy Guidelines adopted by this Committee be waived on this occasion, and that the vehicle be allowed to progress to the vehicle testing stage of the application process. Reason for decision Having regard to the information provided in the report, to the appended evidence and to the representations at the meeting, and due to the fact that the vehicle would need to pass the relevant safety testing in order to be licensed.

Rhaid i gynghorwyr ddweud pan fydd ganddyn nhw gysylltiad personol â rhywbeth sy'n cael ei drafod, fel swydd, eiddo neu aelod o'r teulu. Mae buddiant sy'n rhagfarnu yn ddigon cryf i'r cynghorydd adael yr ystafell fel arfer a pheidio â chymryd rhan.
Caiff datganiadau eu darllen o'r cofnodion unwaith y byddan nhw wedi'u cyhoeddi.
Yn rhestru cynghorwyr presennol y cyngor yn unig. Nid yw aelodau cyfetholedig, swyddogion a chyn-gynghorwyr yn cael eu dangos.
