Where a Member has a new or registered Disclosable Pecuniary Interest (DPI) in a matter under consideration they must disclose that they have an interest and, unless the Monitoring Officer has agreed in advance that the DPI is a 'Sensitive Interest', explain the nature of that interest at the meeting. The Member must withdraw from the meeting at the commencement of the consideration of any matter in which they have declared a DPI and must not participate in any discussion of, or vote taken on, the matter unless they have been granted a dispensation permitting them to do so. If during the consideration of any item a Member becomes aware that they have a DPI in the matter they should declare the interest immediately and, subject to any dispensations, withdraw from the meeting.
Where a Member is declaring an Other Significant Interest (OSI) they must also disclose the interest and explain the nature of the interest at the meeting. The Member must withdraw from the meeting at the commencement of the consideration of any matter in which they have declared a OSI and must not participate in any discussion of, or vote taken on, the matter unless they have been granted a dispensation to do so or the meeting is one at which members of the public are permitted to speak for the purpose of making representations, answering questions or giving evidence relating to the matter. In the later case, the Member may only participate on the same basis as a member of the public and cannot participate in any discussion of, or vote taken on, the matter and must withdraw from the meeting in accordance with the Council's procedure rules. Minutes: There were no declarations of interest from Members. |

To consider the attached report of the Licensing Officer. Additional documents:
Minutes: The Licensing Enforcement Officer informed the Committee that Mr Abdul Hassan Rajabi had applied for the grant of a new Private Hire Vehicle licence for a Skoda Octavia GF58 KND.
The vehicle was outside the current policy guidelines by reason that the vehicle had covered 104,136 miles at the time the application was made. The vehicle was under five years of age.
The Committee adjourned to examine the vehicle accompanied by the applicant (Mr Abdul Hassan Rajabi) and officers and upon reconvening it was
RESOLVED: That, notwithstanding the Council’s current policy guidelines and as an exception on the grounds of the age, overall condition of the vehicle and its mileage being just outside of policy guidelines, Mr Abdul Hassan Rajabi be GRANTED a Private Hire Vehicle licence in respect of a Skoda Octavia (GF58 KND) for a period of 12 months.
