BY NORMAN H. TILSLEY my concern at hearing that the Association's decision to drop the Venables matter —having gone so far and spent so much in legal costs—was again against the advice of its legal advisers.
In view of the situation disclosed at the South Derbyshire and Burton-on-Trent sub-area meeting, whereby a slight infringement of the law on the part of one of the particular member's employees could now automatically put him off the road as far as driving his own car is concerned, ought not the Association to be moving a little faster than it is—either to fight the matter in the courts or go to the Minister to seek an amendment or modification in the law?
An inquiry of the Association's head office reveals that no plans are afoot in either direction: l was told that the Association was waiting for a "suitable" case to come to its notice—whatever the word "suitable" may mean.
