ACOMPROMISE was reached by appellants and cross-appellants 'before the Transport Tribunal in London last week, which resulted in a Kempston, Bedford, operator being authorized to use an extra vehicle on A licence for maintenance purposes. B. H. King was appealing against a decision of the Eastern Licensing Authority, who had granted the conversion of only four Out of seven vehicles from B to A licence.
The British Railways Board crossappealed, and the Board and the Transport Holding Company were respondents to the King appeal, although the T.H.C. withdrew after the Tribunal's decision on A.S.H, Transport (see last week).
Mr. M. H. Jackson-Lipkin, for King, said the result of the L.A.'s decision was to leave three vehicles on B licence, of which one was the maintenance vehicle.
He refused to put the maintenance vehicle on A licence for reasons which are wholly insupportable in law as well as in practice ", said Mr. Jackson-Lipkin.
Mr. Jackson-Lipkin said that if the appeal was confined to the maintenance vehicle only, Mr. Wrottesley would no longer oppose the appeal for the Railways and would consent to the dismissal of the Railways cross-appeal. The Tribunal agreed to the compromise.
