This is probably more suited to the o/d forum, but I need to get an answer to this, for which I am 99% certain of it anyhow. And before anyone asks, I have nothing to do with this, but it is a query that has been talked about between a group of friends.
So.
A company has, say 5 vehicles on their licence, but decide to call it a day. They send the vehicles back to the hire/lease company, who then lease them out to other customers, who, after 30 days, put them on theirs. The original hirer, then forgets, (Or otherwise.) to take them off the O licence.
What period of grace do they get from the local TO to do it? (If any.)
What is likely to happen if they genuinely forget? (Proving that to the TO could be tricky.)
What is the likely outcome?
If the company ceases trading it/you should of surrended your o license. Seeing as the license is that of the companys not the person.
Only can see it being an issuse if the internal or external cpc holder needs the services of the clo. As they might of “forgot” to ring the clo and send the discs back.
Just log on ken and remove them, only takes a few minutes on the portal.
Conor:
If they’ve closed the business what does it matter?
The business might well be closed, but if the nominated TM ‘forgets’ to remove the vehicles from the ‘O’ licence, then the ‘O’ licence must still exist… right?
Conor:
There’s nobody to go after because the company has been wound up.
Really??
I can think of:
1.) The owner of the business
2.) The nominated TM
