• Many local residents have made environmental objections to Pickfords Removals operations at Eastbourne, Worthing and Maidstone — but all three depots have retained their 0-licences. South Eastern LA Brigadier Michael Turner granted the Maidenhead depot an eightvehicle licence for 12 months after hearing that Pickfords plan to move to a new centre. He imposed a condition that no vehicles be kept outside the depot.
• Eastern deputy LA Charles Arnold-Baker has renewed BE&M Drury's 16-vehicle/28-trailer licence and taken no disciplinary action against the North Walsham-based haulier following a succession of vehicle prohibitions and drivers' hours offences. Arnold-Baker is allowing the firm a total of two years to put its house in order.
