CBC Licencing. 'Wrong again' !!

[k4blades]

Do you actually make any money for yourself in your business, or is it all for the council.

wake up people.
It says CRB Check if required.
Fly's argument was that he had an acceptable one that they wouldn't take. So how can they now be saying if required??

[Gerty Gumdrop]

I thought everyone who worked with the public had to have a CRB check.  I have to get mine renewed on a regular basis i.e. only good for x-amount of years.

[Fly]

They've updated the form with new rules, DSA, £5 DVLA charge, but they being so numpty left the CRB bit on. We can't take a current one, we have to do it through them.

I was close!!

Passport/Birth Certificate (UK birth certificate required for CRB form).

Is it this ?.

[Fly]

I hadn't spotted that myself 

So how do CBC expect an EU allowed worker to get a CRB ?
Considering you have to get it through them 

[Fly]

They've updated the form with new rules, DSA, £5 DVLA charge, but they being so numpty left the CRB bit on. We can't take a current one, we have to do it through them.

Guess what, read a licence renewal letter my mate received from CBC today.

It states an 'Enhanced' CRB from another organisation is Ok, as long as it's from within the last 3months.

Do I pat myself on the back, cos the council now see's sense and allows transportation of CRB's ?

Or should I be fuming cos they made me pay for another, when I already had an in date one

So I emailed Trevor Durham, again.
It bounced back, again.

I sent this email to him.

Hi Trevor.
Many thanks for supplying the info about the taxi status on relay day.
It didn't work out too bad on the day. Credit where it's due :-)
 
I've read a taxi licence renewal reminder today. A mate of mine's.
Do I pat myself on the back, that 'Enhanced' CRB's, are now accepted from other organisations by CBC, 3 month thing.
Was my complaining to you instrumental behind the reversal of the decision not to allow them.
 
Or should I be fuming that the council has now done a U-turn after having the audicity to make me, my wife, and numerous other drivers,
pay for a Basic CRB when we already held a valid Enhanced one ?
Should we be asking for a refund, I doubt were going to get one. So I'm not going to ask !
