AN APPLICANT for an A licence this week told Scottish LA Mr. A. B. Birnie that he had been using two vehicles on contract work without a licence. Mr. Birnie, describing the admission as an open and unsolicited statement of guilt, refused the application.

Mr. J. C. Welsh, representing W. and J. Welsh Ltd., of Glasgow, also said that the company's maintenance standard was being improved.

Mr. Birnie said that he was taking into consideration the fact that with 13 vehicles Welsh had received 11 GV9s in recent months.

Welsh also sought to vary its B licence by increasing the unladen weight of six vehicles by a total of four and a half tons.

Mr. Birnie deducted two vehicles from the existing B licence to operate from now until October 31 when the licence is due for renewal. The B-licence variation was granted in the interest of public safety, said Mr. Birnie.
