Thank you for your email received on 14 July regarding the licensing of taxi vehicles.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our Information Access Policy. I can confirm that we hold the information you require. You asked:
I wish to know how many taxi licences have been issued to drivers with a 9-seater Mercedes Vito car in recent years?
We have not licensed any Mercedes Vito taxis for eight passengers. These vehicles are usually licensed to carry six passengers.
If this is not the information you are looking for, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal.
Yours sincerely,
