Motor Vehicles Act Section 32 — Revocation of a conductor’s licence on grounds of disease or disability

CHAPTER III LICENSING OF CONDUCTORS OF STAGE CARRIAGES

Civil

Summary

A conductor’s licence can be cancelled at any time by any licensing authority if that authority has reasonable grounds to believe the licence holder has a disease or disability that is likely to make them permanently unfit to hold the licence. If the authority cancelling the licence is not the one that originally issued it, that authority must inform the issuing authority about the cancellation.

Before cancelling any licence, the licensing authority must give the licence holder a reasonable opportunity to be heard.

Official Text

A conductor’s licence may at any time be revoked by any licensing authority if that authority has reasonable grounds to believe that the holder of the licence is suffering from any disease or disability which is likely to render him permanently unfit to hold such a licence and where the authority revoking a conductor’s licence is not the authority which issued the same, it shall intimate the fact of such revocation to the authority which issued that licence:

Provided that before revoking any licence, the licensing authority shall give the person holding such licence a reasonable opportunity of being heard.
