If I have read this right, a suspension under section 61(1) is a suspension whereby a driver can continue to drive pending an appeal and a suspension under section 61(2B) is an immediate suspension pending an appeal. But neither suspension can be upgraded at a later date to a revocation.

It was brought in because if they had someone charge with rape or murder or....they wanted him or her off the road immediately...

The committee could, however, continue the suspension until the expiry date of the chaps licence and then refuse to renew.

The council have called a committee meeting TO CONSIDER DISCIPLINARY MATTERS IN RESPECT OF A TAXI DRIVER
LICENCE. This meeting is for the full committee to attend. If after this meeting the committee decide to have the driver in for a disciplinary hearing, can any of the Councillors who attend this first meeting then sit on the second meeting because they will have already heard all the "facts" of the case at the first meeting and could be prejudiced by this?

In that case they might as well revoke it.

Not really, as they should hear the full facts in the first place.

could you kindly share the article and refrence to the case law which refer to

''council can't change/upgrade the suspension with revocation on same matter later''

My colleage was suspened with immediate effect interimly subject to out come of pokice investigation base on mere allegation(not charged)
his appeal was pending but durring the exchange of case file concil was reminded and realised they acted unlawfull(as per singh v cardiff case law) they decide to update their policy some 3 years late and to some how save them from obvious humilation on glaring incompetency ,
2 days before listed appeal to be heared in mag court council in dubious fashion without any due process write to driver said we have lifted the suspension but revoke your license and now advise you to ask court to turn pending suspension appeal into pliminary appeal hearing for revocation

pathetic i say ? :twisted:

you cooments an poiners will be welcomed
