• Fewston Transport Services has been granted a new 12-month international licence, for 30 vehicles and 10 trailers by North Eastern Licensing Authority Frederick Whalley, after evidence that Tony Ayres, a former director of Wharfedale Traction is no longer a director.
In May 1988 Wharfedale Traction was ordered to pay fines and costs of £5,300 after admitting permitting drivers hours offences and an offence of unauthorised use (CM 26 May-1 June 1988). It was subsequently prosecuted again for drivers hours offences and ordered to pay fines and costs of £2,000 (CM 3-9 November 1988). For Fewston, Stephen Kirkbright said the directors had originally been Tony Ayres, Gillian Ayres and Roland Syme. However, Tony Ayres had resigned.
His replacement, Norman Bigland, was Gillian Ayres' father. His daughter had put £40,000 into the business and he had put in £25,000. He was retired and able to devote all the time required to running the company. Gillian Ayres said her husband would not take any part in the running of the business.
Mrs Ayres admitted she had been a director of Wharfedale Traction, but said that she had played no part in the day-today running of the company.
Transport manager Alan Johnson gave evidence that the tachograph charts were checked by the technical supervisor and cross-checked against the daily work sheets. He was proposing to take a 25% share holding in the company, investing £25,000.
Granting the licence, Whalley said he did so with the condition that the company notify him immediately of any change in the organisation, management, shareholding or of any other event affecting its fitness to hold a licence.
