Is the law different up in Scotland?

here only a PH with an ops licence can take a job, in some areas that licence is £500

many bases wont allow "private" jobs even for hacks, get seen dropping at an airport and it didnt go through the books and your in the office my lad....


Up here you don't need an Operators office license unless you run 4 vehicles ore more. no seperate ops license unless it's a hidden part of my PH license. but even on Northumberland Tenders I've never seen an Operators license as a prerequisite to tendering!!


It would be a LA requirement - all job details should be recorded at the office taking the call



Of course in my example (£50/day) it could be a base paying an owner driver meter fare......£5 each way

That's what would happen round here, a £50 job would turn into a £5 job when the owners had taken their cut.

and still charge the £100 a week radio rent/settle

thats why its rare to see a circuit sold to the owners of any cars on it.....they dont want anyone to know whats been going on

In Scotland, the vehicle licence is also the operator's licence.
