These Regulations consolidate with amendments the Regulations specified in Schedule 1 (see regulation 2). They modify the requirements of The Goods Vehicles (Licensing of Operators) Act 1995 (“the 1995 Act”) as to operators’ licences in relation to certain foreign goods vehicles and Northern Ireland goods vehicles.
In addition to minor and drafting amendments, the principal changes are:—
