The Licensing Authority may from time to time, after such notice to the holder of any franchise as it may think proper, vary or add to the terms and conditions attached thereto.

(2)

A franchise or licence granted under this Part may, after such notice to the holder thereof as the Licensing Authority may think proper, be revoked or suspended at any time by the Licensing Authority on the ground that any of the terms or conditions of the franchise or licence have not been complied with, or by reason of the fact that the holder of the franchise or licence has been convicted of an offence under this Act or any regulations made thereunder, or under any other Act relating to motor vehicles.

(3)

The Licensing Authority may, in lieu of revoking or suspending a franchise, direct that any one or more of the vehicles to which the franchise relates shall be removed therefrom, or that the maximum number of vehicles to which the franchise relates shall be reduced and references in this or any other section of this Act to the revocation or suspension of a franchise shall be construed as including a reference to the giving of a direction made under this subsection.
