Wellington RC - 28 January 2012

Meet Chair:
NMoffatt

Meet Committee Member 1:
NMcCutcheon

Race Date:
2012/01/28

Race Number:
R 2

Decision:

As Mr Lammas admitted the breach the charge was found to be proved.

Penalty:

Accordingly Mr Lammas was fined the sum of $400.00.

Charge:

Mr George lodged an information with the Judicial Committee alleging a breach of Rule 330 (3) (c) in that B Lammas was overweight for Zenno Rolls Royce.

Facts:

Mr Lammas admitted having problems with his weight and said he was currently trying a new diet which he was hoping would bring the results he needed. He said he consulted regularly with his agent, Mr Mike Dillon, and had asked him to only consider rides carrying a minimum of 54 to 55kgs.

Submissions for Penalty:

Mr George said Mr Lammas had failed to make the weight on two occasions within the last 12 months incurring charges in December 2011 and January 2012. These had been dealt with under the minor infringement scheme and had attracted monetary penalties of firstly $100 and then $200. Mr George submitted a fine of $400.00 was appropriate.

Reasons for Penalty:

The committee considered the submissions and took into account Mr Lammas’ record and his admission of the breach. An aggravating feature in this case was that this is his third offence in a relatively short time frame.
