[2004] EWHC 2836 (Admin)
The requirement by the local authority that the respondent pass a Driving Standards Agency taxi test before it would consider renewing his hackney carriage licence was not a condition attached to the grant of the licence but a request for information. It was reasonably necessary for the local authority to request such information in order to assess whether the respondent was a fit and proper person for a licence.
