Purpose
The purpose of this report is to reconsider a request from the Hackney Carriage trade to increase the maximum chargeable fares payable by the travelling public for Hackney Carriage journeys and to approve a proposal for consultation with the public. A previous report with recommendations was approved by Cabinet, however objections have been received during the consultation period and the decision needs to be reconsidered in light of this. The setting of fares is a power afforded to the Council and it is the Council’s responsibility to strike a balance between setting a fare that is acceptable to the customer and to the taxi driver. Cabinet has the responsibility for decision making.
