Application of Chapter 1 of Part 2 of Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 86 Chapter 1 of Part 2 of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 (investigatory powers) applies to any offence under Part 3 (Finance) or regulation 64 (finance: licensing offences). Monetary penalties 87 Each provision in Part 6 (Trade) which contains a prohibition imposed for a purpose mentioned in section 3(1) or (2) of the Act is to be regarded as not being financial sanctions legislation for the purposes of Part 8 of the Policing and Crime Act 2017.
