  • Local council issues

    I have a form for a taxi driver medical and the points listed are as follows:
    Applicant must have a group 2 medical on initial application
    Then every five years until age 45
    At age 45 every 3 years until age 65
    Then every year thereafter.

    My question is:
    I had a medical at age 65 so every year thereafter I must have another. My birthday is in September so I would assume that 1 year on from my 65th I would have another in September on my 66 birthdays?
    The council are insisting that its due on the 31st May to tie up with their other paperwork. OK so that’s only 5 months after my 65 birthdays not a year thereafter. Would anyone reading this assume the same as me that a year thereafter my 65 birthday on September the 15th is September the 14th the following year (12 months later)
    Any replies would be gratefully received
    Thanks

    I would read it as saying 12 months following the date of your medical at age 65.

    So if you didn't have a medical until December of that year, then it would be 12 months from that date. There's nothing you've provided that suggests the medical must be taken within a certain time of turning 65, 66, 67 etc.

    What isn't so clear is whether you've actually had a medical at age 65 and on what date did that happen. If you are currently 65 and not yet had your medical then I would say it's still within the council's right to request a medical on 31st May since you'd still be aged 65. It just means your medical is going to be 12 months from that date.
    If you have a question about the voluntary termination process, please read this guide first, as it should have all the answers you need. Please do not hijack another person's thread as I will not respond to you
