36.—(1) Where a vehicle is submitted for a re-examination under this Part of these Regulations a goods vehicle examiner shall—
(a)in a case where the re-examination is carried out by reason of a notifiable alteration examine the vehicle for the purpose of determining to what extent that notifiable alteration has rendered the plated weights shown in the plating certificate relating to that vehicle no longer appropriate; or
(b)in any other case examine the vehicle for the purpose of determining to what extent any particular contained in the said plating certificate is no longer applicable.
(2) On completion of the re-examination the goods vehicle examiner shall either—
(a)by notice inform the sender that—
(i)the notifiable alteration has not rendered any of the plated weights shown in the plating certificate no longer appropriate;
(ii)the particular is still applicable; or
(b)amend the plating certificate to show any new plated weights or any new particulars which the examiner has determined for the vehicle; or
(c)issue a new plating certificate in place of the certificate required to be produced under regulation 35 and mark as cancelled the certificate so produced.
(3) Any goods vehicle examiner amending or cancelling a plating certificate shall authenticate the amendment or cancellation by showing on the certificate or on a document securely attached to it his name, the address of the place at which the examination as a result of which the amendment or cancellation occurs, and the date on which the amendment or cancellation takes effect.
(4) Where a new plating certificate is issued for a vehicle it shall contain—
(a)particulars of any plated weights determined for the vehicle under this regulation;
(b)where the vehicle is one of a make, model and type and otherwise one to which the standard lists apply and any such plated weight so determined is less than the equivalent weight shown as a design weight in such lists, particulars of that equivalent weight;
(c)where any such plated weight so determined is less than the weight that would have been otherwise determined under regulation 20 but for paragraph (g) of that regulation, particulars of the last mentioned weight which shall be shown as a design weight;
(d)any other new particular determined for the vehicle under this regulation; and
(e)subject to sub-paragraphs (a) to (d) above, the same particulars as are appropriate in the case of the plating certificate mentioned in regulation 21.
(5) A new plating certificate shall be signed by the goods vehicle examiner who carried out, or under whose direction the re-examination was carried out, or shall be signed on behalf of that examiner by a person authorised in that behalf by the Secretary of State.
