And so to complement our league tables we thought, what better edition than our 300th anniversary issue to introduce, by popular demand, our latest survey. The table details driver and vehicle numbers and licence fees for both hackney and private hire for all the licensing authorities in England, Scotland and Wales. How does your council compare?
LICENCE FEES
