REASONS

This appeal was commenced by the Appellant pursuant to section 131(2)(b) Road Traffic Act 1988 ("the Act"). It relates to a decision made by the Respondent ("the Registrar") dated 24 March 2025 ("the Decision") to revoke the Appellant's trainee licence pursuant to section 130(1) and (2) of the Act on the grounds that, because he had received a fixed penalty notice and 6 penalty points, he had ceased to be a fit and proper person ("FPP").
