Mon, 4 Nov 2013A Cornish labour provider’s appeal against a Gangmasters Licensing Authority (GLA) decision not to grant it a licence has been rejected.
Cornwall Recruitment, formerly known as West Country Staffing, was refused a licence for reasons including its director having accrued over £300k of unpaid tax debts with a previous business, the GLA says.
This saw Adam Young fail the ‘fit and proper person test’, which is one of the GLA’s critical licensing standards.
Cornwall Recruitment’s application was also rejected on the grounds of it having failed to pay HM Revenue & Customs in a timely manner.
