According to representatives of the taxi trade, your Night Time Commissioner Mr Philip Kolvin recently represented UBER having their licence renewed in Cambridge, last year he represented UBER drivers in court at Reading, and last month he wrote an article in the Institute of Licensing website on plying for hire, which some people believe could benefit UBER in their appeal to be re-licensed in London. Given the concerns of members of the taxi trade about potential conflicts of interests, do you think it would be better to employ someone other than Mr Kolvin, about whom there are no such concerns?
