The appellant appealed a Notice of Proposal to refuse his registration as a motor vehicle salesperson.
The Registrar alleged the appellant misappropriated funds from consumers during his employment at two dealerships and made a false statement on his registration application by denying pending criminal charges.
The Tribunal found the appellant's past conduct afforded reasonable grounds for belief that he would not carry on business with honesty and integrity, and that he knowingly made a false statement on his application.
Finding that terms and conditions would not adequately protect the public interest, the Tribunal directed the Registrar to carry out the proposal to refuse the registration.
