Cheryl Gillan Conservative, Chesham and Amersham

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will make an assessment of the effect of the five times increase in the annual upfront fee charges for private hire operator licences by local authorities on small and self-employed operators.


Andrew Jones Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

Local licensing authorities can charge fees for private hire vehicle operator licences that recover the cost of administering the licensing system.

Renewing a licence every five years, rather than more frequently as may have been the case in the past, reduces a financial and administrative burden on many of the small and medium size enterprises that make up the private hire vehicle industry.

I think the chap from the DfT is suggesting that councils who charge 5 times the annual fee are not acting within the law.

Always answer the question with a question never give a factual response so that they can be held to account.

The only people who are into pocket in this whole whole exercise are the big fleet operators with hundreds of cars,the small operator is kicked in the teeth again.

He answered the question with the wording that was used in the debate in parliament. The fact that some councils have not taken any notice if what was said in parliament needs to be addressed by local associations. Our council have interpreted the act in the way that parliament intended.
