"IIHE Yorkshire Licensing Authority 1. has ruled that Mr. E. Jeffcock, a Sheffield coach operator, cannot run fishing excursions at rates lower than other licence holders. As reported in The Commercial Motor, on March 27, Mr. Jeffcock objected to raising fares for angling excursions by 10 per cent., as private-hire operators would be at even greater advantage with the allegedly low charges they offered for contract arrangements.
Other operators, however, contended that if his fares were lower than their's, a price-cutting " war " might arise, with private-hire operators reducing their charges still further. The Authority has made it a condition of Mr. Jeffeock's licence that the increase be put into effect.
