Meeting: 13/01/2026 - Licensing Driver Panel (Item 8)

DP/2026/01

The purpose of this report is to ask Members to review a dual driver licence where a conviction recorded against the licence holder calls in to question their fitness and propriety to be a suitable person to hold such a licence. As such, the licence holder has been referred to this Panel for determination.

Minutes:

The Panel considered an application to review a dual driver’s licence, due to a conviction recorded against the licence holder which calls into question their fitness and suitability 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 had appeared before the Panel, namely an Adult Caution, the report written by the Officer, her recommendations, the Driver’s comments and the Council’s Statement of Fitness and Suitability, the Driver is not a fit and proper person and accordingly a written warning be issued to the Driver not to repeat the behaviour on the grounds that the offence was of a relatively low level nature relating to a family dispute and the Driver having had no previous history of complaints or convictions against him.

 

NOTE: The Driver attended the meeting and addressed the panel.
