• Mr K. P. H. Fielding, head of marketing for British Road Services Ltd, denied last week that the company was phasing out its general haulage activities in favour of contract work.
He was denying our report. to that effect. "Nothing is further from the truth", Mr Fielding said. "The company has recently negotiated and is _still negotiating a number of large haulage deals.... The growth of contract hire has reached a stage at which the company can predict the point at which its contract fleet will equal the size of its general haulage fleet—about 6,000 vehicles."
We readily accept what Mr Fielding says, and are very sorry if there was a misunderstanding as to the nature of the information he originally gave us.
