The Assistant Director (Legal and Democratic Services) submitted a report to provide members with details of proposals to introduce common, minimum standards for Private Hire and Hackney Carriages Vehicles, Drivers and Operators licensed by Licensing Authorities across Greater Manchester (GM). The report set out proposals to consult across GM on the proposed GM minimum standards.
The proposed minimum standards relate to the four key areas identified by GM Licensing Network Group and aim to raise standards across GM with a view to a more consistent approach to taxi licensing across the region.
TfGM will host the GM minimum standards consultation on behalf of all GM Licensing Authorities and will procure an outside agency to do the analysis of responses.
