Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

An anonymous letter detailing allegations of law breaking by Pembroke-based Nolan Transport will be investigated further following a hearing before South Wales Traffic Commissioner John Mervyn Pugh. The letter claims that drivers are being forced to break hours and tachograph regulations and falsify charts.

The company, which holds a licence for six vehicles and six trailers, has attended the second hearing on the matter. Mervyn Pugh said he would also look into allegations that the registered operating centre was not in use and that the company's vehicles were parked on the docks Company secretary Ann Nolan said the company had parked on the docks in the past but had stopped and was now complying with the 0-licensing regulations. Asked about the contents of the anonymous letter, Miss Nolan said that it was the first she knew of any such allegations and she wanted to know whether they were referring to an Irish company of the same name.

After Mervyn Pugh had said that the matter would be investigated by DOT traffic examiners, Miss Nolan denied what was being suggested in the letter.

The commissioner issued a formal warning, and said that he was not dealing with the matters contained in the letter on this occasion.
