Operator licence compliance
Traffic Commissioner Public Inquiry Preparation
A Traffic Commissioner public inquiry can put an operator licence, transport manager position or business continuity at risk. We help operators prepare the documents, evidence and written representations needed before the hearing.

Get the Documents Right Before the Hearing
The inquiry is not the place to start organising evidence. Operators need a clear chronology, frank explanation of what went wrong, evidence of corrective action and a practical plan for future compliance.
We help with
- Written representations for the Traffic Commissioner.
- Witness statements for directors, transport managers and responsible staff.
- Compliance evidence, training records and maintenance documents.
- Hearing bundles and practical preparation.
Typical issues
- Maintenance systems and inspection records.
- Drivers’ hours, tachograph and working time issues.
- Transport manager effectiveness.
- Financial standing or undertakings.

Why Operators Choose NA Law
We write in a way decision-makers can use: clear chronology, direct admissions where necessary, evidence of remedial steps and realistic undertakings. The aim is to help the Traffic Commissioner understand both the issue and the steps taken to prevent recurrence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you attend the public inquiry?
This page focuses on document preparation and written representations. If advocacy support is required, we can discuss the best arrangement after reviewing the call-up letter.
What should I send first?
Send the call-up letter, operator licence details, recent correspondence and any compliance audit or DVSA report.
Can documents make a real difference?
Yes. Clear, organised evidence can be central to showing that the operator has understood the risk and taken meaningful corrective action.
