Article 11 Licensing of harbour water taxi services
The Commissioners may upon such terms and conditions as they think fit grant to any person a licence to operate a harbour water taxi service (in this and the following articles referred to as “a licence”) in any part of the harbour.
The Commissioners shall not be required to issue a licence if in their reasonable opinion—
the provision of the service to which the licence application relates would give rise to the risk of congestion, or obstruction or danger to navigation; or
a comparable service is already being provided, whether by some other person already licensed under this article or by the Commissioners, which meets the needs of potential users adequately;
the applicant is unsuitable to hold the licence, whether on account of misconduct by the applicant or (where the applicant is not an individual) by any person in control of or concerned with the management of the applicant, or for any other sufficient reason.
