Cross border law isn't always the best possible outcome, but it's always the law.

If your mate lives in Bury he can't have a Bolton ops license. Without a Bolton ops license he can't operate on his own with a Bolton licensed vehicle and driver's badge.

Not at all what i am doing is to try nad get the best posible out come, the answers given or spot on, but brought out another i am sorry you feel that way but this forum is a wealth of information and knowledge and thought that what its for.


I dont disagree....but your running an association from the views of it, which doesnt exactly suggest your doing any thinking....just asking questions. :D


what is wrong with checking the facts, what is wrong by asking questions is this not what this forum all about, i am sorry if that upsets you just checking whether i was rght, i have a lot of members and i get e-mails from all and i like to do and give the best advice i can, and just may be some one as a betetr understanding of a item then me, i have been in preston Bury Balckburn dealing with lots of issues to day i did not need to trouble any one.

every one need help yes even me.

And the first question would have been.....why are we answering questions for a private hire operator :wink:

Charles,

I take it the person had an operators license registered at his home address in Bolton? It would appear he has moved over the border and he wants an operators license for his new home in Bury. The Bolton operators license is no longer valid, if he wishes to continue working from home he has to obtain a Bury operators license and also replate his vehicle in Bury. If he wishes to continue working in Bolton as private hire then he needs to work for a Bolton operator or find a premises in Bolton where he can operate from. He could also get a Bury hackney plate and operate from home without a private hire operators license.

Regards

JD

Well that seems very straight forward to me.

Charles, have you no relatives in Bolton who would apply for a PH ops licence?

seems the easiest way forward...

not the biggest dodge in the world, youve got badge/plate/CRB/insurance....

or rent a cheap office/office space in Bolton

It's not for Charles it's for somebody he knows and has convinced he can sort things out for him. What I don't understand is why he is if he's a taxi association cos it appears the guy in question is a PH sole trader. If he just pointed him in the general direction of the 1976 act he would be able to see that the vehicle, the badge and ops licence are to be from the same LA and the office for the ops licence needs to be there as well. If its from his home then commonsense tells you it needs to all be from that address and I don't understand the problem with changing it all :roll:

Maybe just the cost and the time frame. If his current licenses have say 6 months to run, he wont get a refund from his current council will he? Also there may be a vehicle age restriction in place that means that he can't plate his vehicle in the new area but it was still ok in the current area.

probably because the bolton guy doesnt want to learn all of bury for a test when he will only be working in bolton? or maybe bury have draconian NVQ/test/etc,etc and lets be fair, isnt this stupid in 2009, telling someone they are shackled to one parish? sounds like the 1700s....
