 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.

Trevelyan v Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions
Despite the Secretary of State’s earlier decision, the authority remained of the view that, while no bridleway existed, the evidence demonstrated that there was a right of way in the form of a footpath.
In seeking to uphold the inspector’s decision, the Secretary of State contended, inter alia, that the modification sought by the authority would result in a fundamentally different order, and could not therefore be described as ‘confirming’ an order subject to modification.

Member States whose sites hosting one or more priority natural habitat types and priority species represent more than 5% of their national territory may, in agreement with the Commission, request that the criteria listed in Annex III (Stage 2) be applied more flexibly in selecting all the sites of Community importance in their territory.
