The Road User Charging (Enforcement and Adjudication) (London) Regulations 2001

Administrative support and defrayal of expenses

4.—(1) The Authority shall provide, or make arrangements for the provision of, accommodation and administrative staff and facilities for adjudicators and determine the places where they are to sit.

(2) The expenses incurred by the Authority under paragraph (1) and on remunerating adjudicators shall be defrayed—

(a) in a year in which only one charging scheme is for the time being in force in Greater London by the charging authority for that scheme;

(b) where two or more charging schemes are in force, by the charging authorities for those schemes in such proportions as they may agree or, in default of agreement as may be determined by an arbitrator nominated by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators on the application of any charging authority.

(3) Where the Authority is satisfied that there has been, or is likely to be, a failure on the part of the charging authorities to agree on the proportions in which the expenses recoverable by the Authority are to be defrayed under paragraph (2)(b), it may give the charging authorities such directions as it considers appropriate to require them to refer the matter to arbitration under that paragraph.
