A COMPANY that had operated without an 0-licence since 2001 will only be granted a licence if its transport manager regains his repute by attending an FTA refresher course.
North WesternTraffic Commissioner Beverley Bell revoked the four-vehicle licence held by Ashboumebased Carl Jeffrey. She will grant a new licence for three vehicles rather than the 10 vehicles and five trailers requested by CPJ Environmental Services, of which Jeffrey is the sole director and transport manager after he has attended the course.
For Jeffrey and the company, Paul Carless said there had been a change of entity into a limited company in June 2001. A licence application in April 2005 had stalled due to a lack of documentation and a fresh application had been submitted in February He agreed that no interim licence had been applied for.The operating centre had been changed around October 2006.
Jeffrey said that when the business became a limited company he had made a mistake in not realising he needed to notify the TC.
He added that he had passed the CPC examination in 1996 and was thinking of taking a refresher course. He was also looking at putting the assistant transport manager through the CPC course.
The TC said that in 2001 everyone but the Traffic Area Office had been notified of the change to a limited company and she did not accept that this had been a simple oversight.
The business had a substantial turnover of £.1 .5m and Jeffrey was not an unsophisticated businessman.
The licence had been renewed in 2006 with a declaration that there had been no changes, when Jeffrey knew in 2005 that he needed a new licence. No application had been made for an interim licence although the Traffic Area Office had asked if they wanted one.The TAO had also warned the company that it had no authority to operate vehicles.
