Post subject:  Twelve drivers lose their license in South Ayrshire

Taxi and private hire licences revoked across South Ayrshire

Twelve taxi and private hire licences have been revoked across South Ayrshire because drivers failed to complete mandatory training, a report has revealed.

There are currently 442 taxi and 86 private hire licensed drivers operating across South Ayrshire, and all drivers must complete their mandatory training within six months of receiving their licence.

At the last two meetings of South Ayrshire Council's regulatory panel - which deals with operator licences for taxis, private hire operators and other businesses - councillors heard that 12 taxi or private hire vehicle driver licences were revoked because the drivers concerned had failed the mandatory training.

Councillor Martin Kilbride, who chaired the regulatory panel's meeting on August 31, said: “It is clear that there is a high amount of drivers who have not completed their training, as required by their licence.

“We remind all drivers that they must complete their training within six months of the issuing of their licence.

"We also remind all drivers to respond promptly to any correspondence from our licensing team.”
