ACONDITION that the applicant should produce figures of revenue for the past year was made by the Northern Licensing Authority, last week, when he renewed the A licence which Mr. W. Fury, Newfield, Coniston, had held since 1932.
Applicant asked for the condition, "general goods, all districts," to be substituted for the present wording, "furniture, household effects, stone, slate and agricultural products in the six Northern counties and elsewhere a$ occasion requires."
Mr. F. J. McHugh, for British Railways, suggested that the proposed wording implied new activities, but Mr. Fury said that there was no such intention. He had merely summarized his activities for the purposes of the application.
The Authority said that he was satisfied that Mr. Fury did not intend to change to long-distance trunk work, but to continue as before and safeguard his occasional long-distance loads.
