AN appeal by a Southampton haulage firm specializing in low-loader work who feared that another Southampton firm were trying to enter the low-loader market through the backdoor was dismissed by the Tribunal on Wednesday.
Bakers Transport (Southampton) Ltd., appealed against a decision of the South Eastern deputy Licensing Authority granting renewal of a public A licence to F. Seaward Ltd., of Curdrige, Southampton, with certain modifications in respect of the normal user.
The president, Miss M. H. Kidd, Q.C., said that the only issue remaining between the parties was the inclusion in the licence of a 10-ton trailer, about which there was some doubt as to its previous description. In Seaward's application it was described as " articulated/independent, all types ", The Licensing Authority had granted the application on the ground that it was an application for the renewal of an A licence with certain mcdifications in the wording to accord with the current practice of licensing authorities, and that such modifications and alterations involved no change whatever in the future operaticns of the vehicles on the A licence.
Miss Kidd said the L.A. had also found that the wording used in the description C12 on the application was not, as had been suggested, a "backdoor method of entering the low-loader market ". Seaward's had said there was no intention to do otherwise with the vehicles than was done under the previous licence. The Tribunal agreed with the L.A.'s conclusions.
StokelHaulier Wins A BID by Mr. J. H. Kelsall, a furniture
remover of Stoke-on-Trent, to acquire a one-man business was not a genuine takeover, said Mr. G. N. Butts, appearing for four removal contractors at the Transport Tribunal in London on Wednesday.
The Tribunal allowed Mr. Kelsall's appeal against the refusal of the West Midland Licensing Authority to grant him an A licence for a van owned by Mr. H. W. Tilsley, of Burslern.
The acting president, Miss M. H. Kidd, said there was just sufficient evidence to establish that Mr. Kelsall was buying a business, and he woud be granted an A -licence to carry furniture within 20 miles.
The appeal was opposed by C. Knight and Sons Ltd. of Stoke-on-Trent, John Riley (Hanley) Ltd., H. Shaw, of Longton, and N. H. Baggaley of Newcastleun der-Lyme.
