Request

I found in the licensing policy that MOTs are carried out annually for vehicles up to 3 years old, and every 6 months for vehicles over 3 years old. Based on this information and Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, I would like to request MOT details of vehicles currently licensed by Dover District Council, specifically private hire and hackney carriage taxis. 

For each vehicle, please provide the following information: 

Make, model, and body colour

DVLA registration date in the format DD/MM/YYYY

Next MOT date in the format DD/MM/YYYY 

Response

The information you have sought is attached. Vehicle registration numbers are considered to be personal data and therefore exempt from disclosure under Section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act.  This information has not been included in the attached document.  In making this decision, the Council has taken into consideration a decision notice issued by the Information Commissioner in relation to a request for this information in respect of another local authority.  The decision notice can be found here: https://ico.org.uk/media/action-weve-taken/decision-notices/2019/2614512/fs50793373.pdf.
