FOI request (FOI222179)

Private Hire Drivers, Vehicle Proprietors and Operators

Requested Tue 22 August 2017
Responded  Tue 22 August 2017

Private Hire Drivers, Vehicle Proprietors and Operators, and Hackney Carriage Drivers and Vehicle Proprietors are licensed by your authority, and the licenses held are a matter of public record.

Please can you help me to identify where in your public records I can access the details of each license, including the addresses for each?

It would be much simpler for me if you could extract a list of current and past license holders and supply them in an Excel spreadsheet.  If this is not possible, please direct me to where I can access the required information.

I understand you may need to redact personal names of any license holder.

For convenience, please supply the information electronically as an email attachment to my email, but if this is not possible, please send a CD-ROM or Memory Stick containing the data to my address, which I shall provide if that is necessary.

Please acknowledge receipt of this email, and revert to me as soon as possible, within the 20 working day time limit for such a request.

I appreciate your assistance in this matter.

Response

All our public records for hackney/private hire vehicles and drivers are accessible via our website: www.hastings.gov.uk under licensing - public registers.
