Cancellation of registration when operational service standards not met – inserted section 6L
168.Section 6L (read with the new subsection (7ZA) of section 6) enables the traffic commissioner to cancel a registration in circumstances where the traffic commissioner considers that an operator is not providing a registered service in accordance with an operational service standard that has been imposed in relation to the service (or services) that the operator provides.
169.It is worth noting that the wording of subsection (2) gives the traffic commissioner discretion about cancelling the registration in order to enable other means of resolving the situation to be explored first (including the imposition of penalties or attaching conditions to the registration).
