41 Permits to operate licensed vehicle contrary to licence
The Minister may grant to the owner of any commercial goods vehicle licensed under this Division a permit authorising the vehicle to operate subject to such conditions as may be imposed by the Minister —
on any deviation from the routes specified in the licence; or
temporarily, on any route or in any area not specified in the licence.
Every application for a permit under subsection (1) shall be in writing in the form prescribed.
Notwithstanding subsection (2), the Minister may grant a permit without prior lodgement of the written application where he is satisfied that sufficient information has been made available to him to enable him so to do.
A permit granted pursuant to subsection (3) —
shall be deemed to take effect upon verbal notification to the applicant that the permit will issue; but
shall be deemed not to have taken effect if the written application relating thereto is not received by the Director General within 14 days of the Minister’s decision or if the information contained in the written application differs in a material particular from the information made available to the Minister prior to his decision.
