Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

BRITAIN'S new regulations on professional competence have driven one company out of business.

Nationwide Transport Ltd has stopped operating its 65 vehicle fleet and 180 trailers because it had no-one licensed to run a fleet.

The company's 0 licence was revoked at a public inquiry by South Wales LA Ronald Jackson on Monday after the company had been issued with eight prohibitions — two immediate and six delayed — and an overloading charge.

Nationwide Transport is part of the C. H. Bailey Group whose chairman Mr Bishop commented: "Quite simply we have found that there are too many regulations in this country."
