Enforcement of licence conditions
Section 45: Amount of penalty: daily amounts

152.Section 45 provides that a penalty of a daily amount imposed on a person for contravention of a licence condition or of a requirement of an order is an amount payable where the contravention continues after the penalty is imposed. The daily amount, which must not exceed 0.1% of the person’s qualifying turnover for the qualifying period, is payable in respect of each day in a specified period that the CAA considers appropriate.
