Permit requirement for commercial journey to, in or through listed countryU.K.
This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum
4.—(1) The operator of a goods vehicle is prohibited from using it on a journey for the carriage of goods to, in or through a listed country unless the use of that vehicle in that country is authorised by, and takes place in accordance with, a permit—
(a)granted by the Secretary of State, and
(b)carried on that vehicle.
(2) Paragraph (1) does not apply—
(a)where the journey is not a commercial journey,
(b)to the use of the vehicle by the operator on the part of the journey which—
(i)takes place in the listed country, and
(ii)is of a description in Schedule 2,
(c)where a temporary exemption has been granted under regulation 14 that applies in relation to the journey by the operator using the vehicle, or
(d)where a permit cannot be issued under these Regulations in relation to the use of the vehicle by the operator because one of the circumstances specified in paragraph (3) applies.
(3) The specified circumstances are—
(a)the operator of the vehicle is subject to a ban on the entry of vehicles possessed or owned by the operator in a listed country to, in or through which the journey would take place(1);
(b)the use of the vehicle on the journey is one that, under all agreements that relate to the listed country to, in or through which the operator proposes to use a goods vehicle on a journey, is not permitted.
(4) For the avoidance of doubt, the fact that paragraph (1) does not apply to the use of a vehicle by virtue of paragraph (2)(d) does not constitute authorisation for the vehicle to be so used on a journey for the carriage of goods to, in or through a listed country.
