Oh dear, very sad to hear of this
(Though of course I don't want to suggest that falling foul of the rules is in any way okay, whether this is what has happened or not).
Oh dear very sad to hear...
What does all this mean in lay mans terms?
By looking it up:
Section 17 is revocation , suspension of licences which can be for financial standing of the company.
Section 16 is conditions attached to licence which can be maximum number of veichles operating out of its operating centre .
BA07 GHA is here still in GHA livery with Fairbrothers fleet names.
Fairbrothers saga continues
TM Public Inquiry (Case ID: 399430, Public Inquiry ID: 82453) for DAVID FAIRBROTHER to
be held at The Public Inquiry Room (Warrington), WA3 2SH, Suite 4, Stone Cross Place,
Stone Cross Lane North, Golborne, Warrington,
on 30 November 2016 commencing at 10:00
Unless Fairbrothers have more than 1 Licence it would appear he has had his licence revoked, first we have this change that was refused:
DAVID FAIRBROTHER
3 BRATHAY CLOSE, ORFORD, WARRINGTON, WA2 9UY
New operating centre: UNIT G, CATHERINE STREET, WARRINGTON, WA5
0LH
New authorisation at this operating centre will be: 6 vehicle(s)
Removed operating centre: UNIT F ,, HOYLE STREET, WARRINGTON, WA5
0LW
Then lower down it says the Licence is revoked without a Public Enquiry
DAVID FAIRBROTHER
3 BRATHAY CLOSE, ORFORD, WARRINGTON, WA2 9UY
Registered Bus Services running under this licence have also been revoked with
immediate effect.
I think thats because his moved his operating licence address by the looks of it as all his services will have to be adjusted to his new address.
He does have two licences - David Fairbrother which has been revoked, and Fairbrothers Ltd which is still current. Although the current licence gives the operating centre as Appleton, a place where he hasn't operated from for some time. All current bus registrations are on the current licence so there shouldn't be any change to any services.

Why would they revoke a dormant licence?

How many vehicles was the revoked one for? Could be to prevent any rapid expansion without re-application?
