• No action was taken against the licence held by Llanelli-based Wm North (Transport) and it was renewed without restriction, after the company 'promised not to commit further excise duty offences.
South Wales Deputy IC Gerrard Sullivan was con sidering taking action against the licence, which the company was seeking to renew for 23 vehicles and 32 trailers. Neighbouring residents opposed plans to authorise eight vehicles at a site at Roby Street.
But Ivor Price, for the company, pointed out that the site was an established operating centre which had been used by the company for 28 years.
Director Wyn ford North said the site in question was only used for parking. He admitted that there had been problems over taxing vehicles when the company appeared before Traffic Commissioner John Mervyn Pugh last October and again in March of this year (CM 25-31 March and 8-14 April). The vehicles wci-e now all properly taxed ipnd there had been no further offences since January. The company was now viable and able to meet its oblig ations, he said.
