## How to read Notices and Proceedings

Each traffic area publishes its own issue, usually every week, with a number and a date. A new bus or coach operator licence application appears first under applications received, and the issue prints the objection deadline. The decision follows in a later issue, as a grant or a refusal. Variations, public inquiries and licences revoked, surrendered or terminated are in the same issue.

Goods vehicle operators appear in a separate weekly bulletin, [Applications and Decisions](https://haulierscope.co.uk/applications-and-decisions), which we read in the same way. Public inquiries listed in either bulletin are on [upcoming public inquiries](https://haulierscope.co.uk/public-inquiries). To check a coach or bus company before you book, use [coach and bus operators by county](https://haulierscope.co.uk/coach-operators) or the [biggest coach and bus operators](https://haulierscope.co.uk/biggest/coach-and-bus-operators).

Companies are named. Sole traders and partnerships are counted, not named, because their operator name is usually a person’s name.
