• Scottish Deputy Traffic Commissioner Ramsay Dalgety is to consider disqualifying Andrew Wilson, a director of Inverclyde Transport, Greenock, from holding or obtaining an 0-licence, Dalgety reserved his decision on what action to take against the company's licence, following a four-day disciplinary hearing, and indicated that he proposed considering the possibility of disqualification at a further hearing at the end of the month.

During the public inquiry the Commissioner was told that since Inverclyde had been granted a licence for only 12 months at a public inquiry in March 1990, seven immediate prohibitions, four of which had been endorsed "neglect", and five delayed prohibition notices, had been imposed on its vehicles. Five of the prohibitions were subsequently varied when additional defects were discovered.

Wilson maintained that vehicle examiners had exaggerated the seriousness of defects listed on the prohibition notices.
