If what you say is true, does that mean if/when the Sprinter van things turn up, one of them could go out because a driver fancies it ?

If the vehicle used doesn't meet the capacity required by the contract then Arriva could be penalised. However, given what GHA got away with on contracted services (especially the 200) I can't see the penalty being any more than a reminder of the required capacity or a deduction from the subsidy.
