Bolsover District Council is consulting on its Draft Taxi Licensing Policy. In July 2020 the Department for Transport issued their revised Statutory Taxi & Private Hire Vehicle Standards. The guidance outlines a minimum core standard which local Councils are expected to adopt in relation to Taxi Licensing.
The expectation from the Department for Transport is that these standards should be adopted as a minimum standard unless there is a compelling local reason not to. In light of the new standards, Bolsover District Council has undertaken a full review of their Taxi Licensing Policy and would like your feedback on the proposed changes.
