• Pontypridd-based All Grades (Metals), trading as AC Iron And Steel, is waiting to see if the new South Wales Traffic Commissioner, David Dixon, will accept the surrender of its licence. The company failed to attend a Cardiff disciplinary inquiry and wrote to the TC to say that it wanted to surrender the licence.
Vehicle examiner Stephen Cook said one of the company's vehicles had been given a prohibition for a brake defect and an insecure wheelnut. During a roadside check he gave a second vehicle an immediate prohibition for four defects showing a significant maintenance failure. The company's Four-vehicle licence had been issued last September, said Cook, but only tvio vehicles had been used. There was uncertainty about who owned the company and neither vehicle had been taxed since April. The TC will announce his decision at a future date.
