I find it extremely difficult to engage or retain a driver
for the Vauxhall because of the number of commissions he is called
upon to carry out both during and after office hours. In view of
this and in the light of other experience gained during the time
I have managed the car I suggest the following :

That the car and truck drivers should receive the
same amount in wages.
That only one of these two drivers should be on
duty after office hours on any one day, and that
he should drive the car or the truck, as preferred
or as circumstances necessitate. This would have
the advantage that only one driver would be on duty
on a Friday, and he would get the following Friday off.
That a special tariff of Re. 1 should be levied for
every .journey made by the car/truck after S p.m. on
any evening, to be paid by the occupants, and to be
in addition to the usual charge on mileage covered.
This could be paid to the driver concerned at the end
of the month and would do much to alleviate the dissatis
faction felt at present wh n a driver is kept out late of
an evening.
That Rule 7(a) of the Car Rules should now be altered
so that the charge of 4 as. per mile for- a private
booking of the whole car should only be allowed where
the occupantsof the car/truclf ape a clerk's wife and
children. The rate of 2/lJ- as. should be paid for
every other person who occupies the car/truck.
That both the car and the truck should be under the
same charge. Supdt. and C.C. could alternate as Clerk
in Charge for ar month at a time.
That Rule 5 of the Car Rules should be more strictly
observed than it hap been. It may however be amended
as follows:- “The Clerk in Charge of Transport should
be given notice of a private booking not later than * ,
11.30 a.m. on week days, and before that time on
Thursday for a private booking on Friday.
That both the car and the truck should carry a log
book as per specimen page attached.
I have two candidates in view for driver and would be
gfateful for A.P.A's comments on these proposals before I
seek to engage one.

Para 1 I agree
Para 2 It is destiable that^the car or the truck should be
handled bes one person so that he is made entirely
responsible for the vehicle in his charge; instances
therefore of the driver of one vehicle being made to
drive the other should be kept to the minimum and
should, preferably, be allowed only in the case of
the truck which will be required on all Fridays to
fco to the NAAFI.
Para 3 I agree.
Para 4 I 'do not think that the present rates need any revision
At any rate I suggest that this question be deferred
until the 1 st April when we will have a clearer idea of
the cost of the maintenance of the truck.
