Top of page 6 of the report;

'On 20 November 2009, the decision of the council to impose age limits on Hackney Carriage vehicles was quashed following a hearing before Mr Justice Beatson. Costs were awarded against the council, and the claimant’s solicitors are seeking costs in excess of £500,000.'

And here is the report presented and discussed at yesterday's Licensing Committee meeting that decided the issues on the agenda, including age limits;

www.newport.gov.uk/stellent/groups/publ ... 593994.pdf

When you get to Appendix B on page 10, click on THE PROPOSED TAXI POLICIES to open up a new window.

Anyone know the outcome?
