Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

DURING an application, last week, by the Glasgow Hiring Co., Ltd., for the renewal of the A licences for their entire fleet, the railways, as objectors, suggested that the applicants should demonstrate that all the work they were doing was, in fact, in accordance with their normal user. Mr. W. Quin, Scottish Licensing Authority, ruled that 5i per cent, of a haulier's operations could constitute his normal user, and he granted the application after an analysis of revenue, tonnage and mileage had been submitted.

It was agreed that the company's normal user would be regarded as the carriage of 70 per cent. of their traffic within 25 miles of Glasgow, and the balance as requited.
