Road Traffic Act, 1933

Appeal against revocation or suspension of licence.

102.—(1) Whenever the Commissioner revokes (otherwise than upon the application of the licensee) or suspends a public service vehicle licence, the person who was the licensee under such licence immediately before such revocation or suspension may appeal against such revocation or suspension (as the case may be), where such revocation or suspension was made on the ground that the licensee had ceased to be a fit and proper person to hold a public service vehicle licence, to the Justice of the District Court having jurisdiction in the place in which such person ordinarily resides and, in every other case, to the Minister, and on the hearing of such appeal the Justice or the Minister (as the case may be) may, as he shall think proper, in the case of a revocation either confirm or annul such revocation or substitute therefor suspension for such period as he shall think proper or, in the case of a suspension, confirm or annul such suspension or reduce the period thereof and, in any case, shall cause notice of his decision on such appeal to be given forthwith to the Commissioner.

(2) The decision of a Justice of the District Court or of the Minister (as the case may be) on an appeal under this section shall be final.
