NO INTERVENTION
TRANSPORT LICENSING AUTHORITY EMPHATIC OFFICIAL CHANNELS ONLY (By Telegraph.—Press Association) PALMERSTON N., Thursday “If a member of Parliament or any other person interviews me outside this room about an application that application will not be heard,” said Mr P. 0. Skoglund, Transport Licensing Authority, in making an emphatic statement, that he was not to be approached except through strictly official channels for licenses or amendments thereto. j “I made a statement some months ago and I wish to make it again,” said !Mr Skoglund, “in connection with intervention by members of Parliament jor other persons who think they have I some brief measure of authority. It is -useless asking anyone, especially a member of Parliament, to come to me ! to intervene on behalf of any applicant in a case under the notice of the i authority.” j Mr Skoglund said he had been approached by a member of Parliament in Wellington. As that was before he had made his current statement he would not take it into account. Later a decision was given if) favour of the applicant.
