Legal Requirements at Sporting Events

 Carriage of passengers to designated Sporting Events Voluntary Guidelines - and Wales For some years the coach industry has complied with a voluntary code of practice whereby operators taking passengers to a designated sporting event meet certain guidelines set by the police. This has worked very well, and it has seldom been necessary for a Traffic Commissioner to take any further action against an operator who has contravened the guidelines. Nevertheless the police in England and Wales are concerned that football hooliganism is again on the increase, and have asked the Commissioners to remind PSV operators of the guidelines. This has been done in conjunction with the Confederation of Passenger Transport (CPT).

Carriage of passengers to designated Sporting Events Voluntary Guidelines - England and Wales

PSV operators are reminded of the terms of Section 1 (1) of the Sporting Events (Control of Alcohol) Act 1985, as amended by the Public Order Act 1986, which prohibits the carriage of alcohol on a PSV that is being used for the principal purpose

2 of carrying passengers for the whole or part of a journey to or from a designated sporting event.

A “designated sporting event” generally means any association football match, whether national or international. The full legal definition of “designated sporting events” may be found in The Sports Grounds and Sporting Events (Designation Order) 1985, as amended by SI 1520/1987.

It is an offence for an operator of a PSV (or his servant or agent) knowingly to cause or permit the carriage of alcohol on journeys to which these Regulations apply.

In addition to these statutory provisions, the police have asked that operators comply with the following guidelines when conveying passengers to such sporting events: a. Coach operators taking bookings from groups of supporters are to notify the police liaison officer at the destination, at least 48 hours before the event, of the number of supporters expected to travel and the number of coaches booked. b. Coaches are not to stop within 10 miles of the venue either en route to or on departure from the event unless prior agreement is obtained from the local police liaison officer. c. Unless directed otherwise by a police officer, coaches may stop at premises where intoxicating liquor is sold only if it is sold ancillary to a substantial meal. Prior agreement for meal stops where alcohol is available should be sought from the operator’s local police liaison officer. d. Coaches are to arrive at the venue no earlier than two hours before and not later than one hour before the scheduled start of the game, unless otherwise directed by police. e. Coaches are not to set down or uplift passengers at any unauthorised locations without prior permission of the police. f. Coaches must leave the venue within one hour of the finish of the event. g. Intoxicating liquor must not be carried on coaches travelling to or from designated grounds. Operators will draw hirers’ attention to the requirements of the law, and drivers shall, as far as reasonably practical, supervise boarding passengers and check that they are not obviously carrying intoxicating alcohol. Drivers will not be expected to carry out baggage or body searches, nor will they be expected to confiscate alcohol or to remove passengers without police assistance.

Operators are asked to comply with these guidelines on a voluntary basis. However if the police inform the Traffic Commissioner of any failure on an operator’s part to comply with them the Commissioner will consider applying them as a formal condition to that operator’s licence under the authority of Section 16(3) of the Public Passenger Vehicles Act 1981.”

Section 2 – PSV Operator Licensing

Inspection of licence applications can be requested under the provisions of Regulation 4 of the Public Service Vehicles (Operators’ Licences) Regulations 1995 by anybody who holds statutory objector status. Applications may be inspected free of charge at the Office of the Traffic Commissioner in Leeds by any person who carries written authorisation to act in that capacity.

Objections against applications for licences must be made in writing by a Chief Officer of Police or by a local authority within 21 days of the date on which notice of an application is published in Notices and Proceedings. Objections must be made on the grounds that one or more of the requirements mentioned in Sections 14(1) and (3) of the Public Passenger Vehicles Act 1981 are not satisfied in relation to the application. A copy of the objection must be sent by the objector to the applicant at the same time that it is sent to the Traffic Commissioner. The onus of proof in terms of the grounds on which an objection is lodged lies with the objector. There is no right of objection against an application for a special licence submitted under Section 12 of the Transport Act 1985.

Classification of Operator Licences – There are four classes of licence:

 A Standard International (SI) licence authorises the use of any description of public service vehicle on both national and international operations;  A Standard National (SN) licence authorises the use of any description of public service vehicle on national operations;  A Restricted licence (R) authorises the use of: a) public service vehicles not adapted to carry more than eight passengers; and b) those not adapted to carry more than sixteen passengers when used otherwise than in the course of a business of carrying passengers or by a person whose main occupation is not the operation of public service vehicles adapted to carry more than eight passengers;  A Special Restricted (SR) licence, issued under Section 12 of the Transport Act 1985, authorises the holder of a taxi or private hire vehicle licence to operate local services.

Appeals in connection with PSV Operator Licences must be lodged with the Upper Tribunal – Administrative Appeal Chamber (Transport), 5th Floor, Rolls Building, 7 Rolls Buildings, Fetter Lane, London, EC4A 1NL not later than 28 days after the date of the letter conveying the Traffic Commissioner’s (or Deputy Traffic Commissioner’s) decision.

- That the licence is reduced from 5 vehicles to 4 vehicles with effect from 14 January 2014; - That the operator's repute is retained albeit tarnished; - That the operator no longer satisfies the requirement of professional competence under Section 17(1)(a) and 14ZA(3)(b) of the Act as his TM has lost his good repute and professional competence as a Transport Manager. - That the operator is granted a period of 3 months grace to appoint a new Transport Manager; - That adverse findings are made out under Sections 17(3)(a), (aa), (b), (c) and (e) of the Act; - That no adverse findings are made out on effective and stable establishment and financial standing; - That adverse findings are also made out under Sections 26(1)(a), (b) and (c) of the 1985 Act and that a financial penalty of £2,750 is imposed (£550 x 5) under Section 155 of the Transport Act 2000, which is to be made payable to the ‘Secretary of State’. The fine is to be paid in full within 3 months and failure to do so goes towards the repute of the operator; - That an order is made out that by 12 January 2014 all PSV vehicles will run in accordance with the Statutory Quality Partnership Scheme as a complementary (compared with core) service as defined in the Birmingham SQP scheme. This means that the operator will not be departing from the area of the SQP more than twice an hour, other SQP rules will continue to apply; - That formally the short notice variation of registered timetable is approved by the Traffic Commissioner w.e.f Sunday 12 January 2014 – slots are to be agreed with Centro.
