Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Halifax-based J T Windle was granted an additional six vehicles and trailers after neighbouring residents, who had made environmental representations against the application, failed to attend a Leeds public inquiry, before North Eastern Licensing Authority Frederick Whalley.

The company had applied for the vehicles and trailers to be added to a licence for eight vehicles and trailers based at the Shay Lane Industrial Estate.

For Windle, Gary Hodgson said that he doubted whether the three residents who had made representations could be classed as being within the vicinity of the operating centre. The representations were in respect of the use of Shay Lane, which was a public road. It was the main road into the industrial estate and was used by many vehicles that had nothing to do with Windle. In such circumstances, the residents really had no valid representations.
