EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations are made under section 127 of the Antisocial Behaviour (Scotland) Act 2004 (“the 2004 Act”) and amend the Police (Retention and Disposal of Motor Vehicles) (Scotland) Regulations 2005 (“the 2005 Regulations”).

Under section 126 of the 2004 Act the police have certain powers to seize and remove motor vehicles.

These Regulations provide for the amounts payable in respect of removal, retention and disposal of vehicles as set out in Parts 1 and 2 of the Schedule. The amount of the charge payable in respect of those matters is now determined by the type or size of a vehicle, and by the circumstances under which it is removed by an authority.

These Regulations amend Regulation 6 of the 2005 Regulations which previously provided for charges of £105 for removal of a vehicle and £12 a day for retention of a vehicle.

A business and regulatory impact assessment has not been prepared for these Regulations.
