Hi guys. Does anyone know the case law that states a vehicle is not required to be purchased when making a taxi licence application? Thanks! |

I know the case law that states that it must be "presented", so, de-facto, any un-purchased vehicles may not be licenced. This of course, would appear to be exactly what you don't want. I do not know any case law that says what you want I'm afraid. |

Might be different in Scotland though. Didn't look at your location until I posted the above. |

I understand why you would wish to see if you will get a license before you buy a motor to attach it to, but I have sympathy with councils that say we can only issue a license to an actual vehicle, not a mythical one. The Wirral v Kelly case went on for about 10 years, and I've forgot how that ended now. Maybe the Captain can save me getting the big books out when I get home. |

Glasgow City Council allow prospective licencees to state that when the vehicle has yet to be purchased the vehicle to be used will confirm with the council's requirements. https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=5543 http://www.docspal.com/viewer?id=uqbeqbbr-9032828 |

I remember either myself or someone else asking about this years ago, I'll do a site search. |

The Council should have a list of Vehicles they approve. |
