	THOMAS MUIR (HAULAGE) LIMITED v. THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, TRANSPORT AND THE REGIONS, 25 September ...
		As counsel submitted to us, despite the careful checking and correction of the record of prohibitions which the licensing authority carried out, neither he nor the Transport Tribunal applied their minds to the critical question of the degree to which the operator was culpable nor was the evidence explored to identify that critical issue.
		It is important to bear in mind that the grounds with which we are concerned state that it is the conviction, the prohibition or the non-fulfilment of the undertaking which forms the basis for the direction.
		Having reached a conclusion as to the extent to which he should accept the statement of defects as set out in the prohibitions, he was entitled to infer from their number and nature that there had been a failure on the part of the appellants to fulfil their undertakings.

		In the light of the arguments advanced for the claimants on this appeal, it is pertinent to refer to the submissions on costs which the parties made to the Lands Tribunal.

		The third issue was, whether there was any distinction between (i) the approach which the Tribunal should take as to costs in cases of disputed compensation for the compulsory purchase of land and (ii) the approach which is taken by the courts.
