'Important changes to Operator Licensing', by Tim Ridyard, Solicitor, Woodfines
A more detailed note will follow but operators will already have received or be receiving a letter from the Central Licensing Office in Leeds requiring completion of a Transport Manager Questionaire by both nominated the Transport Manager and the Operator.Guidance notes accompany this letter and it is vital both TMs and operators take this seriously by reading the notes in full before signing the declarations and providing accurate information. This all relates to EC Regulation 1071/2009 in force 4 December 2011. The documentation must be returned by 17 October and the information request must not be ignored.
