Advertising on Licensed Vehicles – Taxi Policy

The Licensing and Regulatory Committee has a historic Advertising on Licensed Vehicles Taxis Policy (“Policy”). This Policy can be viewed here

On 8 November 2023 the Licensing and Regulatory Committee (“Committee”) considered a report from the Director of Legal and Administration in relation to the Policy. The Committee was aware this Policy had not been reviewed recently.  While the Committee was aware there was no statutory obligation under the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982 to review existing policies, as a matter of good practice it was of the view that policies should be reviewed from time to time to ensure they remain necessary and appropriate in terms of ensuring public safety.  On 8 November 2023 the Committee agreed:

To instruct the Director of Legal and Administration to carry out a review of the Policy, by way of a consultation, and to report back with the findings of the review.
