The Director of Vehicle Inspection Standards proposed to revoke the appellant's registration as a motor vehicle inspection mechanic after the appellant pleaded guilty to provincial offences for improperly issuing safety standards certificates and making a false statement.
The appellant appealed the proposal to the Licence Appeal Tribunal.
The Tribunal found that while the facts underlying the proposal were proven, revocation was unnecessary to protect the public.
The Tribunal noted the appellant's continued employment without issue, the licensee's updated procedures, and the specific deterrence achieved by the significant fines already imposed.
The Tribunal ordered the Director to refrain from carrying out the proposal.
