A number of prohibitions were admitted; out of 24 vehicles examined there had been four immediate and five delayed GV9s and in one instance a vehicle had nine defects although allegedly examined fully only three weeks previously. An assurance was given that responsibility for checking final work would henceforward be handled by a qualified mechanic.

Mr A. 13. Birnie, the LA, granted a licence to run for three years, cutting the margin to 23 vehicles and four trailers giving a total fleet of 83 vehicles and six trailers. He also ordered that no vehicles should be added until the new workshop was in use.
