The Panel considered an application to review a licence, due to the conduct of the Driver which calls in to question their fitness and propriety to be a suitable person to hold such a licence. As such, the application was referred to the Panel for determination.

 

RESOLVED that, based on the information provided to the Panel, having taken into account the reason the Driver has appeared before the Panel, namely: convictions, the report written by the Officer, their recommendations,  the Driver’s comments and the Council's Statement of Fitness and Suitability the Applicant is not a fit and proper person and accordingly the licence is to be SUSPENDED for a period of 5 Months on the grounds that the number of driving convictions received over a short period of time calls into question the Driver’s driving ability.
