The Court dismissed all plaintiffs' claims: the departmental letters were non‑binding authorisations not cumulative contracts, the Commissioner lawfully cancelled registrations under the Road Traffic Regulations or the plaintiffs acquiesced in cancellations, plaintiffs lacked existing vehicles and did not make the necessary formal applications (or appeals) to create enforceable rights to registration/licensing or to public light bus licences, and therefore no relief was available; costs awarded to defendant.
