• Willenhallbased international haulier David Henton has been given a conditional discharge for a year by Wolverhampton magistrates after admitting failing to produce tachograph charts. Benton, trading as David Benton Transport, admitted 19 offences.
Barbara Stubbs, prosecuting for the DTp, said that there was no point in having tachograph records unless they were available for production. When Benton was asked by a traffic exam iner to produce two months' charts, 108 charts were missing.
Defending, Geoffrey Davies said that there was nothing sinister in the fact that the charts were missing. It was purely a question of bad housekeeping by a transport manager who had left Benton in April.
