CHANGE IS COMING


New Statutory Standards issued by government are requiring all local authorities to review existing policies and conditions and to feed back either confirmation that they are compliant, or a strong reason why not.


Page Header STORY HEADER


WHAT IS BEING REVIEWED - these are national standards and cannot be challenged locally


• DBS checks • Safe and suitability guidance • The biggest issue: seven DVSA penalty points resulting in a five-year ban for licensing


SO WHAT IS THE URGENCY?


Most local authorities have already begun consultations on these standards, so this is the ideal opportunity for the trade to address other local council issues at the same time.


LOCAL ISSUES These include: • licensing fees increases • CCTV • English tests • congestion charges • remote working • reduced vehicle age limits • livery colour • restriction of vehicles • WAV policies • window tints • penalty points schemes


These are LOCAL CONDITIONS implemented by LOCAL AUTHORITIES and CANNOT be dealt with on a national or governmental level. There is NO LEGAL CHALLENGE other than responding to your local consultations.
