U.K. TABLE OF DERIVATIONS

Notes:

1. This Table shows the derivation of the provisions of the consolidation.

2. The following abbreviations are used in the Table—

V(E)A= Vehicles (Excise) Act 1971 (c.10)
1976 FA= Finance Act 1976 (c.40)
1979 CEMA= Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 (c.2)
1982 FA= Finance Act 1982 (c.39)
1986 FA= Finance Act 1986 (c.41)
1987 FA= Finance Act 1987 (c.16)
1988 FA= Finance Act 1988 (c.39)
1989 FA= Finance Act 1989 (c.26)
1990 FA= Finance Act 1990 (c.29)
1991 FA= Finance Act 1991 (c.31)
1992 (No.2) FA= Finance (No.2) Act 1992 (c.48)
1993 FA= Finance Act 1993 (c.34)
1994 FA= Finance Act 1994 (c.9)

3.Part I of Schedule 7 to the Vehicles (Excise) Act 1971 makes modifications of other provisions of that Act which continue to have effect until an order under section 39(2) of that Act provides that the modifications are to cease to operate. Paragraph 18 of Schedule 2 to the Finance Act 1994 prevents the making of such an order in relation to certain of the modifications, thereby causing the modified provisions permanently to have effect subject to the modifications. This Table does not separately acknowledge paragraph 18 when showing the derivation of such a modified provision.

4. The Table does not separately acknowledge the provisions (in particular the Criminal Law Act 1977, the Criminal Justice Act 1982 and the Fines and Penalties (Northern Ireland) Order 1984) which secure that, where the maximum fine or penalty that may be imposed on the commission of an offence was originally expressed as a particular amount (or one particular amount on a person’s first conviction and another on subsequent convictions), the amount of the maximum fine or penalty is now the statutory maximum (in the case of an either way offence tried summarily) or a particular level on the standard scale (in the case of a summary offence).
