DECISION
PUBLIC PASSENGER VEHICLES ACT 1981 (the “1981 Act”)
Pursuant to an adverse finding under Section 17(3)(aa), that vehicles would be fit and serviceable, the licence is curtailed to 19 vehicles immediately and indefinitely.
Justin Spiller has lost his good repute as transport manager and is disqualified from acting as such for a period of one year and until he can demonstrate that he has undertaken three months of learning alongside a competent transport manager and he demonstrates he has the capacity to fulfil the role
Pursuant to Section 17(1)(a) and (b) of the Act, the licence is without professional competence. I grant a period of grace of three months for that to be rectified. If professional competence is not restored by that point, revocation is mandatory.
An undertaking is recorded:
25% of preventative maintenance inspections will be conducted by a qualified independent technician. The operator can seek to be released from this undertaking by employee directly a qualified individual.
