Nope, that relates to licensing issues not fare issues.
A hackney is a hackney no matter where he is.
A hackney can only charge more than the authorized council tariff if the destination is outside of the licensing authority's area.
Within the area he can only charge the council set tariff whatever the job. Even if it's a funeral or a wedding.
Thought as much to be honest....surprised that section of the act wasnt as clear as for vehicles used for funerals, in my experience the consequences are much the same anyway, although perhaps weddings are more of a gradual death.

On reflection I think you were right in the first instance.
