22 January 2010
1.These Explanatory Notes relate to the Goods Vehicles (Licensing of Operators) Act (Northern Ireland) 2010 which received Royal Assent on 22 January 2010. They have been prepared by the Department of the Environment in order to assist the reader in understanding the Act. They do not form part of the Act and have not been endorsed by the Assembly.
2.The Notes need to be read in conjunction with the Act. They do not, and are not meant to be, a comprehensive description of the Act. So where a section or part of a section or schedule does not seem to require an explanation or comment, none is given.
