7(1)Where power is conferred on an enforcement authority under section 142 to impose a fixed monetary penalty in relation to an offence, the provision conferring the power must, subject to this paragraph, secure the result in sub-paragraph (2).U.K.

(2)That result is that the enforcement authority must from time to time publish reports specifying—

(a)the cases in which a fixed monetary penalty has been imposed, and

(b)the cases in which liability to the penalty has been discharged pursuant to section 143(2)(b).

(3)In sub-paragraph (2)(a), the reference to cases in which a fixed monetary penalty has been imposed does not include cases where a penalty has been imposed but overturned on appeal.

(4)The provision conferring the power need not secure the result in sub-paragraph (2) in cases where the appropriate authority considers that it would be inappropriate to do so.
