Hackney Carriage Fare Review 2022 – Public Consultation

The Council is proposing a new revised table of fares for Hackney Carriages licensed by the Council. The Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1976 provides that in respect of the charges for Hackney Carriages, the Council “may fix the rates or fares within the district as well for time as distance, and all other charges in connection with the hire of a vehicle…by means of a table.”

The proposed changes are the first increase since 2018. The amended fares comprise, in summary, of:

• Increased start charge for all tariffs
• Sundays to be permanently Tariff 2
• Surcharge per passenger for journeys more than 4 passengers
• Tariff 1 changes to start and finish times
•  Tariff 2 to start at 6 pm on a Friday and Saturday

Proposed table of fares

Licensing Act 2003 - Statement of Licensing Policy review

As a licensing authority we are responsible for licensing premises within our County that provide the sale of alcohol, the provision of regulated entertainment and the sale of hot food and/or hot (non-alcoholic) drinks after 23:00 hrs.

Premises such as pubs, clubs, restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, together with late night takeaways all require licensing in some form.

We are required to produce a Statement of Licensing Policy setting out the approach to licensing in our County.

This policy provides clear guidance on the legal requirements and expectations of the council; to licence holders, applicants, and residents.

There are four licensing objectives under the Licensing Act 2003, which are:

1. prevention of crime and disorder.
2. public safety.
3. prevention of public nuisance.
4. protection of children from harm

We can only have regard to matters that relate to one or more of the licensing objectives listed above when determining our Statement of Licensing Policy

We are seeking feedback from adult carers (over 18 years of age) to help us improve policy and service development for unpaid carers in Denbighshire.

Please note: This project is about supporting people who are unpaid Carers for family and/or friends, and not about people who are employed in a caring role, for example with a domiciliary care provider.

Who is a Carer?

If you provide regular unpaid help and support for a relative, partner or friend who is frail, or disabled, has physical or mental health issues, or substance misuse problems, then you are a Carer. The Social Services and Well-Being Act (Wales) 2014 defines a Carer as someone who provides or intends to provide care for an adult or disabled child.

December 2019

Feedback from survey now available to download.

The feedback document provides summarised findings of what you said and details of what Denbighshire County Council's Supporting Carers Project are doing at this stage to respond.
