Views sought on introducing knowledge tests for private hire car drivers

People are being asked for their opinions on whether The Highland Council should introduce knowledge tests as part of the licensing process for private hire car drivers.  Currently only taxi drivers are required to sit and pass a knowledge test as part of the licensing process.

The public consultation process will run for an 8 week period and will close on Monday 28 April 2025. 

All representations received will be considered by the Highland Licensing Committee at a future meeting.
