To consider an application for Exemption from Display of Plates.

The Sub-Committee considered a report regarding an application for an exemption certificate to exempt two vehicles from the requirement to display signage as required by condition 7 of the Cheshire East Borough Council’s Private Hire Vehicle Licensing Conditions and from the requirement under condition 8 to display licence plates to the front and rear of the vehicles.

The Sub-Committee was informed that the application fell within the Council’s policy for determination by the Sub-Committee.  Accordingly the hearing had been convened to enable the Sub-Committee to determine whether the application for exemption from the requirement to display licence plates on the vehicles in question should be granted.

The applicant attended the hearing and made representations in respect of his application.

After a full hearing of the application and in accordance with the rules of procedure, the Chairman of the Sub-Committee reported that after taking account of all of the evidence, including the applicant’s oral representations, the following course of action had been agreed.

RESOLVED - That an exemption from the requirement to display the Council’s Private Hire licence plates on two licensed vehicles be granted and that condition 10 of the Council’s Private Hire Vehicle conditions be applied to the vehicles in question.
