Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Though Metropolitan Licensing Authority Air Vice-Marshal Ronald Ashford found it difficult to conclude that Romford-based J C Vaughan met the requirement to be of good repute, he has decided to take a "lenient" view and afford Vaughan an opportunity to demonstrate that he can operate within the law.

Vaughan, who trades as J Vaughan Haulage of Dulverton Road, Harold Hill, held a licence for one vehicle. He had applied for a further five vehicles and to move his operating centre to Rairdiam.

The LA said that it appeared that the operating centre had been moved without authority and that Vaughan had been associated with R J Tipping and Narwood — one of which had had its licence revoked, and the other had had a licence application refused. In addition, a prohibition notice had been imposed on Vaughan's vehicle and he had been convicted of the unauthorised use of vehicles and of the non-payment of vehicle excise duty.

Granting authority for the move of operating centre, and increasing the authorisation to three vehicles, Ashford cut the duration of the licence to expire at the end of April 1992. He said that, although the operating centre had been moved without authority, there had been some delays in dealing with the variation application.

Making the grant conditional upon Vaughan submitting his tachograph and maintenance records to the Traffic Area Office every six months, Ashford warned that any failure to do so or any further aberrations would have serious implications.
