Chapter III

LICENSING OF CONDUCTORS OF STAGE CARRIAGE OR CONTRACT CARRIAGE

Power of licensing authority and Transport Committee to disqualify
28. (1) If any licensing authority or any Transport Committee constituted under Chapter V or any other prescribed authority is of opinion that it is necessary to disqualify the holder of a conductor's licence for holding or obtaining such a conductor's licence on account of his conduct as a conductor, it may, for reasons to be recorded in writing, make an order disqualifying that person for a specified period for holding or obtaining a conductor's licence.
 
 
 
 
(2) Upon the issue of any such order the holder of the conductor's licence shall forthwith surrender the licence to the authority making the order, if the conductor's licence has not already been surrendered, and the authority shall keep the conductor's licence until the disqualification has expired or has been removed.
 
 
 
 
(3) Where the authority disqualifying the holder of a conductor's licence under this section is not the authority which issued the conductor's licence, it shall intimate the fact of such disqualification to the authority which issued the same.
 
 
 
 
(4) Any person aggrieved by an order made under sub section (1) may, within thirty days of the service on him of the order, appeal to the prescribed authority which shall decide the appeal after giving such person and the authority making the order an opportunity of being heard and the decision of the appellate authority shall be binding on the authority making the order.
