PUBLIC PASSENGER TRANSPORT

These Regulations revoke and replace the Minibus and Other Section 19 Permit Buses Regulations 1987. They apply to any vehicle used under a section 19 permit and to the drivers of such vehicles. A section 19 permit is a permit granted under section 19 of the Transport Act 1985 (“the 1985 Act”) under which certain educational and other bodies may carry their members and certain other people on a public service vehicle without having to satisfy the usual public service vehicle operator licensing requirements. Such vehicles may not be used to carry members of the general public and must not be used with a view to profit. Permits may be granted by traffic commissioners, or by bodies designated for this purpose in an order made under section 19(7) of the 1985 Act.
