'THE Metropolitan Licensing Authority, .Mr. D, I. R. Muir, made it quite clear on Tuesday that he did not favour
restrictive .declarations in respect of A licences. But, under the particular cir
cumstances,. he Was prepared to grant applications by F. W. Dawson and Co. Ltd., of Waltha.mstow, London, for a variation of the company's licence and a
new. A licence for fciur vehieles. . • Making the application, Mr.. M. H.
Jackson-Lipkin said the intention was to .change the .normal user in respect of four customers, the company wanting a licence
covering general goods within a 25-mile radius of London and on occasional journeys in.. the ',Home' .Counties, Midlands. and North West England, • Giving evidence, Mr,V. R: Coward,
• .
managing director of, F: W. Dawson as
. . . .
well as..s, director of Tarbun's Transport Ltd:, Coward Bros. (Haulegc) Ltd. and Quelch Carriers Ltd.e said he Was pre,pared, to give_ an Undertaking . that no Press periodicals_ would be carried by Dawson. The traffic was being transferred to the' other three companies and this Was an important move in the reorganization of the group.
Mr. Jackson-Lipkin submitted that Coward was not-taking-himself out of the category of an Arlicence 'holder "by restr:cting himself to .four customers.
Granting the' application, Mr. Muir said:" 1 am not satisfied about the restrie'tive effect on the A licence. In my view the A-licence holder is a man who can properly advertise himself as carrying goods anywhere. I do not like this view of restrictive declaration in respect of A liceuces."
The Authority also allowed eppiicafirms by Ouelch Carriers and Coward Bros. for variations of their A licences and by Tarbun's Transport for a. variation and a new A licence.
No Flynn Decision
DEcISION was reserved by Mr. J. . Qazdar, deputizing for the North Western Licensing Authority, at Manchester on Tuesday, on two applications by Flynn Bros. (Contractors) Ltd. (The Commercial Motor, May 17, 1963). The case, which was part-heard, involved the deletion of a 3-ton vehicle from B licence and the acquisition of a new 61-tonner, and the variation of the conditions attached to the B licence. The normal user sought was: " Roadmaking, buntline and demolition materials, scrap and solid fuel within a radius of 70 miles of base', with the exception of .George Wimpey and Co. Ltd. for whom the company wished to carry within a 100-mile radius.
Supporting the application, Mr. A. L. Dearden, of Stephenson and Clarke Ltd., solid fuel factors, said that his company had recently secured a large contract for pulverized fuel ash. British Railways objected, and evidence was also given by two independent road hauliers who stated that they had spare capacity.
