AN 0-LICENCE has been granted to an operator on condition that his disqualified stepson has nothing to do with the company.

Stanley Jukes, sole director of Biddulph, Stoke-onTrent-based CU, was seeking a new national licence for one vehicle and one trailer before West Midland Traffic Commissioner David Dixon. The TC said there was concern about the apparent connection with Heath Jukes Transport, whose licence was revoked last year after its sole director was convicted of falsifying tachograph records (CM 3 November 2005).

Jukes said he had been in transport in the 1970s and 1980s before returning to butchering.The Heath Jukes truck had been standing around in Biddulph so he thought he would have a go himself and bought the vehicle. He had work for it and someone to drive it who he had worked with years ago.

Jukes said Heath Jukes was his stepson and the company secretary was currently Heath Jukes' wife Christine. His stepson was not the driver.

Jukes gave an undertaking that his stepson would not be involved in the company in any capacity or with the operation of vehicles under the licence.
