Kings Lynn is one of the first licensing authorities to prosecute a limo owner for breaching licensing regulations. http://www.west-norfolk.gov.uk/Default.aspx?page=23145 Regards JD |

A complimentary bottle of champagne was provided on the journey without the required authorisations under the Licensing Act 2003. Something that my man who knows liquor licensing inside out said would happen.

A timely reminder of what the Lords said on the subject of limousines in November 2005. http://taxi-driver.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4040 Regards JD |

One other thing, and that's that council allows vehicles, such as these, to be licensed as special events vehicles. So anyone that chooses to even ignore that deserves everything they get. And let's hope this is the first of many.

And let's hope this is the first of many. ![]() There is no provision in the 1976 act for a so called "special event private hire license". I think it was Sefton who first dreamed up the idea of special event private hire licensing. The 1976 act is very specific and it states that licensing authorities can only regulate Private hire licenses by way of attaching license conditions. There is no provision in the act to set up a special licensing category. It therefore means that these vehicles are licensed under the 1976 act with conditions attached and nothing more. Every other section in the 1976 act relating to the licensing of drivers, vehicles and operators apply to limos. Any licensing authority who think they can write their own legislation could be heading for a fall. Regards JD |
