Fees—partial examinations6.

(1)

Where a certificate to which this paragraph applies has been issued in relation to a vehicle or vehicle part and in consequence of an alteration in the design specification of the vehicle or vehicle part, either–

(a)

a further examination of the vehicle or vehicle part is needed with a view to the issue of a modified or further certificate but the alteration is not so extensive as to require that the further examination shall be as complete and exhaustive as the original examination; or

(b)

an applicant requires a modification of a certificate but the alteration is not so extensive as to require a further examination of the vehicle or vehicle part and can be carried out on an examination of data supplied by the applicant,

the fee for such an examination is such proportion of the fee prescribed in regulation 4 as the Secretary of State considers to be appropriate.

(2)

Paragraph (1) applies to–

(a)

a sound level measurement certificate; or

(b)

a type approval certificate, or an authorisation, in relation to

(i)

a Community Instrument; or

(ii)

an ECE Regulation; or

(3)

Where, in the case of any examination as is mentioned in regulation 4 or 5 or in paragraph (1)–

(a)

it has been found impossible to complete the examination satisfactorily; or

(b)

the vehicle or vehicle part submitted for the examination does not satisfy completely the requirements of the examination,

and in consequence a further, but partial, examination of the vehicle or vehicle part is required, the fee to be paid for such further examination is such proportion of the fee prescribed in regulation 4 as the Secretary of State considers to be appropriate in view of the nature and extent of the further, but partial, examination.

(4)

Fees—final examination of complete vehicle7.

(1)

The fee for the final examination of a vehicle to which the Great Britain Regulations apply with a view to the issue in respect of that vehicle of a document specified in column 1 of Schedule 2 where, before the examination takes place, type approval procedures have been carried out (whether in Great Britain or elsewhere) to ascertain that in respect of that vehicle all the approval requirements which–

(a)

are referred to in Schedule 1 to those Regulations;

(b)

relate to particular parts or aspects of a vehicle; and

(c)

are applicable to the vehicle,

have been satisfied, is of the amount specified in column 3 of Schedule 2.

(2)

The fee for the final examination of a vehicle to which the Great Britain Regulations for Goods Vehicles apply with a view to the issue in respect of that vehicle of a document specified in column 1 of Schedule 3 where, before the examination takes place, type approval procedures have been carried out (whether in Great Britain or elsewhere) to ascertain that in respect of that vehicle all the approval requirements which–

(a)

are referred to in Schedule 1 to those Regulations;

(b)

relate to particular parts or aspects of a vehicle; and

(c)

are applicable to the vehicle,

have been satisfied, is of the amount specified in paragraph (3).

(3)

The amount referred to in paragraph (2) is the amount shown in–

(a)

column 2(a) of Schedule 3 if the vehicle is in category L2, L5 or N1;

(b)

column 2(b) of Schedule 3 if the vehicle is in category N2; and

(c)

column 2(c) of Schedule 3 if the vehicle is in category N3.

it has been found impossible to complete that examination satisfactorily; or

(b)

the vehicle has been found not to comply in all aspects with the relevant approval requirements; or

(c)

the vehicle is one which has been assembled in more than one stage by more than one manufacturer; or

(d)

a type approval certificate or Minister’s approval certificate has previously been issued in respect of the model of the vehicle but the vehicle incorporates certain changes in detail not covered by that certificate,

and in consequence a further, but partial, examination of the vehicle is required before the relevant document can properly be issued in respect of it, the fee for that partial examination shall be such proportion of the relevant sum specified in Schedule 2 or, as the case may be, Schedule 3 as the Secretary of State considers to be appropriate in view of the nature and extent of that partial examination.

Fees—avoidance of duplication8.

Where the examination of a vehicle or vehicle part for the purposes of a Community Instrument or ECE Regulation is carried out at the same time as the examination of that vehicle or vehicle part for the purposes of the national type approval scheme, then in so far as one and the same operation or series of operations serves for both examinations, the fee payable under these Regulations shall be the fee for only one examination.

(a)

the travelling and subsistence expenses reasonably incurred or expected to be incurred otherwise than on land in the United Kingdom by each person so acting in relation to the application or examination (including expenses outstanding after the cancellation of any travelling or subsistence arrangements which result from the withdrawal of any such application); and

(b)

the whole, or such proportion as the Secretary of State may determine is reasonably attributable to the application or examination, of a sum of £45 for each hour spent or expected to be spent by each person so acting whilst travelling otherwise than on land in the United Kingdom, wholly or partly in relation to the application or examination.

(a)

payments have been made in accordance with paragraph (1) in respect of travelling and subsistence expenses expected to be incurred, or in respect of time expected to be spent in travelling; and

(2)

The fee for the carrying out or supervision of an examination of a vehicle or vehicle part in connection with the issue of a type approval certificate or a Minister’s approval certificate shall be paid when the applicant is notified by the Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of the Great Britain Regulations, or the Great Britain Regulations for Goods Vehicles of the fee payable.

(3)

The fee for the issue of a document specified in Schedule 4 or 5 shall be paid–

(This note does not form part of the Registrations)

These Regulations re-enact with modifications the provisions of the Motor Vehicles (Type Approval and Approval Marks) (Fees) Regulations 1989.

The Regulations prescribe the fees payable for the examination of vehicles and vehicle parts, the examination of complete vehicles and the issue of documents in connection with–

(1)

the type approval of vehicles and vehicle parts and the authorisation of the application of approval marks to vehicles and vehicle parts for the purposes of Community Instruments or ECE Regulations; and

(2)

the national scheme for the type approval of vehicles and vehicle parts established under sections 54 to 66 of the Road Traffic Act 1988, the Motor Vehicles (Type Approval) (Great Britain) Regulations 1984 (S.I. 1984/981) and the Motor Vehicles (Type Approval for Goods Vehicles) (Great Britain) Regulations 1982 (S.I. 1982/1271).

In addition to minor and drafting changes, the Regulations make the following changes of substance.

The principal changes relate to the fee amounts. About 20% of the fees remain at their former levels, some are reduced, but most are increased.

A change is made in regulation 10 which is concerned with the fee payable where an examination of a vehicle involves persons, acting for or on behalf of the Secretary of State, visiting a place outside the United Kingdom. The previous Regulations provided that if the travelling and subsistence expenses or the time spent in travelling was less than expected there would be a refund of the balance of any payment made in respect of travelling and subsistence and the whole of any payment in respect of travelling time. This is replaced by a provision for the re-assessment of the fee where the actual expenses or time spent in travelling differs from the estimates, the difference being payable by or refundable to the applicant (as the case may be).

Regulation 12 requires cancellation fees to be paid where an application is cancelled. A provision is added to the effect that the only fee payable by an applicant on a cancellation is the cancellation fee and any fee payable under regulation 10.

The only other changes of substance are that, as a result of amending ECE Regulations, certain new fees relating to sealed-beam headlamps and halogen sealed-beam headlamps, have been added.

Copies of the ECE Regulations and Community Instruments referred to in these Regulations may be obtained from Her Majesty’s Stationery Office.
