Vehicles operated on failed firm's licence
AN APPLICATION by a scaffolding company has been turned down because of connections with a number of failed companies, including the use of an 0-licence granted to a firm that collapsed in 2006.
Glasgow-based Quick Industrial Scaffolding appeared before the Scottish Traffic Commissioner, Joan Aitken.
It had applied for a new restricted licence for five vehicles and five trailers, conditional upon the surrender of licences held by Rutherglen Ransport and Quick Industrial & Decorative Services.
The sole director of the company was Tracy Deighan, and the company secretary was Brian Anderson. The TC said questions in the application form relating to BERR disqualification of directors and connections with companies going into liquidation were wrongly answered.
It came to light that Quick Industrial and Decorative Services was ordered to be wound up on 24 July 2006. No notification of the liquidation had been received and that licence had continued in force with vehicles being added and fees paid to renew it in 2008.
The payment and checklist return was completed by Deighan.
She and Anderson were also directors of Quick Access, which went into compulsory liquidation. The company was up in January 2005.
Anderson said that he was disqualified as a company director in 2004 for being involved in Quick Industrial and Decorative Services with two others. He was now able to be a director again and had been a director of Quick Industrial Scaffolding since 26 January.
Deighan admitted she knew that Quick Industrial and Decorative wound Services was in liquidation. Asked why she continued to operate vehicles under its licence, she said that the "girl" in the office dealt with it and she left everything to her.
The TC said it was almost inconceivable that anyone should think it was alright to continue to operate under a licence granted to a company which had long since collapsed.
