• (a) the other person is licensed under section 55 in respect of the same controlled district and the sub-contracted booking is accepted in that district;

• (b) the other person is licensed under section 55 in respect of another controlled district and the sub-contracted booking is accepted in that district;

• (c) the other person is a London PHV operator and the sub-contracted booking is accepted at an operating centre in London; or

• (3) Where a person licensed under section 55 in respect of a controlled district is also licensed under that section in respect of another controlled district, subsection (1) (so far as relating to paragraph (b) of that subsection) and section 55B(1) and (2) apply as if each licence were held by a separate person.

• (4) Where a person licensed under section 55 in respect of a controlled district is also a London PHV operator, subsection (1) (so far as relating to paragraph (c) of that subsection) and section 55B(1) and (2) apply as if the person holding the licence under section 55 and the London PHV operator were separate persons.

• “the second operator” means the person with whom the first operator made the arrangements (and, accordingly, the person who accepted the sub-contracted booking).

• (2) The first operator is not to be treated for the purposes of section 46(1)(e) as operating a private hire vehicle by virtue of having invited or accepted the booking.

• (3) The first operator is guilty of an offence if—
