• The entire premises were covered with seven inches of mud, there was no inspection pit or under-cover facility and nobody could be expected to carry out vehicle maintenance under such conditions, said Mr. A. Culshaw, MoT vehicle examiner, in Manchester on Tuesday. He had been called by the NW Licensing Authority to give evidence concerning the maintenance facilities of a fivevehicle A licence partnership operated previously by Hall and Holden, which Palisade Motors Ltd., Wigan, was now applying to take over.
Mr. Culshaw told of a vehicle inspection in January when the only two vehicles pro duced for examination were given GV9s.
Mr. A. Holden, partner in the old business and director in the new one, said the present site was a temporary one and a grant would be followed by a move to permanent premises. The LA adjourned the case to allow the applicant to be represented.
• Twelve removers successfully objected in Manchester on Wednesday to an application by B. P. Molyneux for a new A-licensed 4-ton furniture van to operate throughout Great Britain.
Refusing the application, the North-Western LA, Mr. C. R. Hodgson, told the applicant he had been unwise to write personally to the Minister of Transport, since she could not grant the licence: he would do well to obtain professional advice.
Mr. Molyneux, who had been operating without a licence until warned by a Ministry examiner, wished to carry household furniture and effects and produced six letters in support of his bid.
