A former State Registered Nurse and Kiwi& for 17 years has given up her Isition in order to apply for a 'public rvice licence, South Wales Traffic )mrnissioners were told on Friday.

Mrs Mary Margaret Dolan, of Commer d Street, Newport, whose husband Patrick rues Dolan was managing director of smock Private Hire before his licences !re revoked in June 1971, told the courtthat hough she held a share in that company e had never taken any part in the magement. But, she said, she accepted in !,ory that she was partly to blame for the seonduct of the company in not seeing it vehicles were properly serviced_ She said she was now applying for the Nices in her own name and that she Fuld be entirely responsible for The running and maintenance of the vehicles and that her husband would be employed purely as a driver.

Mrs Dolan told the Commissioners that she had entered into a contract with Howells and Withers Ltd for maintenance and had agreed to submit the vehicles to them monthly for inspection.

"I realize the coaches must go into a garage when it is time and I fully understand the importance of maintenance" she told the Commissioners.

Granting the licence, Mr R. R. Jackson said he had to be very satisfied in view of the previous past records of the company that Mr Dolan would only be employed-as a driver.

He also told Mrs Dolan that the licences would only be granted on the undertaking given by Mr C. R. Withers that, in the event of the vehicles not being put in for service on agreed dates, he would personally inform the Traffic Commissioners.
