Defect Rectification Report Book - 50 Numbered Pages 

Your Legal Obligations:

Each transport office should have a nominated person(s) responsible for making the decision as to whether a vehicle or trailer is taken off the road or whether the vehicle/trailer can be used, whenever a defect has been reported by a driver. That person must either have the appropriate skills, experience and knowledge to make the decision or have access to others who do. If the responsible person decides the defect requires immediate action the vehicle must be taken off the road until the defect has been rectified and that an appropriate 'vehicle not in use' sign is placed in the vehicle. All defects must be rectified. Defect reports and defect logs must be retained for at least 15 months. If kept for longer for other reasons (36 months for personal injury claims for example) these files should be kept separately.
