Does anyone know for sure if the LA can stop you putting you name or a name and a telephone number on a HC for the booking of the vehicle. Not a private hire number. HC only number


Cheers

I think it'll depend on your local LA, Most of our's have them on.

They can stop you putting anything on your cab, providing that decision is 'fair and reasonable'.

Have you asked them if you can add your details?

What it is, is two hacks who want to put a door sign with name of a&c taxis and telephone number on the side of there cars. LA has siad no.
All ph have numbers on side so I can't see how they can say no.

Ask the LO their reason for the refusal and then put a formal request before the licensing committee along with any mitigating factors as to why you think you should be allowed the signage, if they still say no you are entitled to a written reason of why they said no. Once you have that written refusal appeal directly to the magistrates court if you think it is unreasonable.

Councillors are sometimes confused in the meaning of the word, "reasonable".
