Decision details

The Chief Executive submitted a report to determine the annual fees for hackney carriage, private hire, scrap metal and sex establishment licences.

Members were reminded that the legislation provides that fees should be set at a level that is considered reasonable with a view to recovering the costs of issue and administration.

The report outlined the current fees charged alongside the proposed fees to be charged; the uplift in fees was approximately 3% rounded up or down as most appropriate
