HAVING decided to sponsor appeals against the Merchandise Transport, Ltd., and Arnold Transport, Ltd., decisions by the Transport Tribunal, the Road Haulage Association is now awaiting the written reasons for the Tribunal's decisions.
Until these are issued, writes a special correspondent, the R.H.A. can do little more than institute the preliminary moves. They took counsel's opinion before deciding to sponsor the appeals, which will be made to the High Court.
The R.H.A. has, I understand, been trying as hard as it. can to get the Tribunal to expedite the issue of its written decisions. For the type of appeal the R.H.A. contemplates, a six-week period of grace is allowed in which to lodge the appeal. It is presumed that this period would date from the issue of the written decisions.
