Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

IAA FTER admitting that they had undertakenillegal tipping work With Cficehsed vehicles, 1. Perkins and Son, Ltd., Ellesmere Port, were refused a new B licence at Chester on Tuesday. They had sought the licence to cover three vehicles for carrying waste materials within 12 miles Of their base.

Mr. J. Smallridge, a branch manager, said they wanted to do haulage for Associated Lead Manufacturers, Ltd., for whom they had worked for many years. It seemed futile to bring in other vehicles just for this outside tipping, when Perkins were operating on the site Answering Mr. J. Edward Jones, for two private objectors, he agreed that Perkins had been tipping for the company for five months. He pointed out, however, that this had stopped as soon as they realized that the work was illegal. No figures were available.

• Mr. J. R. Lindsay, North Western Deputy Licensing Authority, upheld a submission by Mr. Edward Jones that the illegal work should not be ignored, no matter how innocently it had been done. The application was refused.
