Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Motor Vehicles (Third Party Risks) Regulations 1972.
Regulation 5(1) is amended so as to remove the requirement that a company obtain the consent of the Secretary of State before it may issue one certificate of security to cover the use of more than ten motor vehicles and so as to enable the holder of the security to issue duplicate copies of the certificate without being limited by conditions determined by the Secretary of State.
Regulation 9 is amended so as to permit a person who, under a contract, manages a fleet of not less than 250 motor vehicles owned by one person to apply for a licence under the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994 without complying with the requirements of paragraph (1) of the regulation, provided that the contract requires all vehicles in the fleet to be insured in accordance with the Road Traffic Act 1988. Regulation 9(1) requires the production of evidence of insurance or security on an application for an excise licence.
