ORDER

The Regional Transport Authority, Lahore in their meeting held on 17th October 1960, suspended the route permit of the appellant company for a period of one month on the ground that the driver of one of their vehicles was found plying the vehicle without a uniform and a driving license. This was con sidered a breach of Condition No. 23 Part (A) of the permit issued to the appellant and thus attracted the provisions of section 60 (bj of the Motor 'Vehicles Act. It is contended on behalf of the 'appellant that there is no such condition in the actual permit issued to the appellant. Unfortunately the permit Which is n the possession of the appellant himself has not been produced before me and I can only rely on the printed form which the Regional Transport Authority have produced and Which it is stated is used in every case. Condition 23 of the printed form has already been referred to and a breach of that bon edition would; make the permit liable to suspension or can cellation for such period as the Authority may, decide. In this particular case the suspension is only for a period of one month consider it appropriate as driving a public vehicle without a license is ‑not a very minor lapse. I would for the above reasons dismiss this appeal.

K.M.A Appeal dismissed.
