• Barnsley haulier William Jones, trading as L Naylor, was given six months to show he could maintain his vehicles in a satisfactory condition, when he appeared before North Eastern Licensing Authority Frederick Whalley on 5 April.
Jones had initially applied to renew his licence in respect of 21 vehicles and 22 trailers, but at the start of a Leeds public inquiry he said he was only seeking renewal in respect of the current authorisation of 10 vehicles and nine trailers.
Evidence was given by a vehicle examiner about prohibition notices imposed on Jones's vehicles. He said the vehicles were not inspected at the specified intervals and that Jones had failed to comply with undertakings in respect of de. fect reports given at a previous public inquiry.
A traffic examiner said untested trailers were being parked on a road in an industrial estate, but Jones claimed that that had only occurred while the yard at the operating centre was being resurfaced. The vehicles were being inspected every six months, with the Freight Transport Association carrying out checks.
Curtailing the licence to six vehicles and four trailers, Whalley directed that it be continued for a six-month period when a further technical check would be carried out. If that was satisfactory the licence would be renewed in respect of six vehicles and four trailers for 12 months.
