THE big news Juts, of course, been .1 the Transport Tribunal's decisions in favour of C-licence-w-A . and Contract-to-A switches, via the Merchandise Transport and Arnold Transport appeals. As a result, the Road Haulage Association is sponsoring appeals to the High Court to have the decision set aside.
