The appellant appealed a Notice of Proposal to refuse his registration as a motor vehicle salesperson under the Motor Vehicle Dealers Act, 2002.
The Registrar based the refusal on the appellant's past conduct as a registered dealer, which included repeated failures to disclose vehicle accident histories and total loss declarations to customers.
The Tribunal found that while the appellant presented new evidence of completing an automotive certification course, his past conduct afforded reasonable grounds for belief that he would not carry on business with honesty and integrity.
The Tribunal directed the Registrar to carry out the proposal to refuse registration, finding that conditions would not adequately protect the public interest.
