The Panel was asked to consider an application to review a Dual Driver’s suspended licence where information 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 was referred to the Panel for determination.
RESOLVED that
1. based on the information provided to the Panel, having taken into account the reason the Driver had appeared before the Panel, namely information recorded against the licence holder, the report written by the Officer, their 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 the suspension of the licence be continued on the grounds of public safety until the outcome of the Driver’s appeal against the content of the Driver’s DBS certificate is concluded; and
2. if the Driver’s appeal is successful, the Principal Licensing Officer be given delegated authority to lift the suspension of the licence without the matter having to be brought back before the Panel.
Note: The Driver attended the meeting and addressed the Panel.
