• The MoT should announce the proposed fees for the new operators' licences without any further delay, said Mr. G. Turvey, secretary of the ETA when he addressed members of the Institute of Traffic Administration in London on Wednesday.
Industry was facing a possible total bill of between £3m and £7m in licence fees which would have to be paid in the first nine months of 1970. Money of this order could not be found overnight. Plans had to be made, budgets prepared, decisions taken, It was difficult to believe, said Mr. Turvey, that the Ministry had not determined the level of the fees months ago and certainly they should be available now with less than two months to go before the first applications were due.
