Commercial driver's licence downgrade upheld after appellant's implanted defibrillator delivered a shock for ventricular tachycardia.
The appellant, a commercial truck driver, appealed the Ministry of Transportation's decision to downgrade his Class A commercial driver's licence to a Class G non-commercial licence.
The downgrade was prompted by a medical report indicating the appellant's implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) had delivered an appropriate shock to treat ventricular tachycardia.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the appellant suffers from non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and that the recent ICD shock, in accordance with the CCMTA Medical Standards for Drivers, poses a significant risk to public safety.
The Tribunal confirmed the Ministry's decision to downgrade the licence.
Real estate salesperson registration refused due to past tax evasion convictions and unregistered motor vehicle trading.
The appellant appealed a proposal by the Registrar to refuse his registration as a real estate salesperson.
The Registrar's proposal was based on the appellant's past criminal convictions for tax evasion, unregistered trading in motor vehicles, bankruptcy, and a previous revocation of his motor vehicle salesperson registration.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal found that the appellant's financial position and past conduct afforded reasonable grounds for belief that he would not carry on business in accordance with the law and with integrity and honesty.
The Tribunal directed the Registrar to carry out the proposal to refuse registration.
