Section 119A of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 (inserted by section 25 of the Transport (Scotland) Act 2005) allows the Scottish Ministers, by regulations, to make provision for or in connection with the imposition by the Scottish Road Works Commissioner of penalties on road works authorities and undertakers who fail to comply with the duties imposed on them by sections 118 and 119 of the 1991 Act respectively. Section 118 relates to the general duty of road works authority to co-ordinate works and section 119 relates to the general duty of undertakers to co-operate. These Regulations exercise that power.
