There is no summary of this meeting yet. One is written once the council publishes the minutes. The agenda and papers are below.
In accordance with the Code of Conduct adopted by the City and County of Swansea, no interests were declared.
The Head of Democratic Services referred to Minute 44 “Proposal to Introduce Mandatory Card Payment Facilities in Hackney Carriage (Taxis) and Private Hire Vehicles”. For clarification, it was proposed that whilst the minute would remain unchanged, the following would be included in the preamble of the consultation: Please note that in relation to Section 3 of the attached report, all proprietors would be required to take debit card, credit card and contactless card payments. Those proprietors who currently take cash payments would continue to do so under these proposals providing that they also give passengers the option to pay by card. Resolved that the Minutes of the General Licensing Committee held on 10 January 2025 be agreed as a correct record.
The Chair reported that Officers had withdrawn the report.
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
Declarations are read from the minutes once they are published.
