These Regulations relate to vehicle registration, vehicle registration plates and exemption from vehicle excise duty for certain vehicles brought temporarily into the United Kingdom.
They are made in exercise of the powers conferred by section 8(1) of, and paragraph 21 of Schedule 7 to, the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16) (in particular section 8(2)(a) and (g), and (3)(a) apply), and under complementary powers in the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994 (i.e. sections 22, 23 and 57), in order to address failures of retained EU law to operate effectively and other deficiencies arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union.
They are also made in exercise of those powers in the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994 to address some existing out of date references to European Union law and other existing deficiencies in the legislation on road vehicle registration and registration plates (regulations 2(2)(a) and (c), and 3(2) to (4) and (6)).
