8.—(1) A local authority may refuse to issue a badge on any of the grounds specified in paragraph (2).
(2) The grounds are–
(a)the applicant holds or has held a badge issued under these Regulations or under the 1982 Regulations and misuse has led to at least three relevant convictions;
(b)the applicant fails to provide the local authority with adequate evidence–
(i)in the case of an individual, that he is a person to whom one of the descriptions prescribed by regulation 4 applies; or
(ii)in the case of an institution, that it is an institution eligible to apply for a disabled person’s badge in accordance with regulation 5;
(c)the applicant fails to pay the fee (if any) chargeable for the issue of a badge; or
(d)the local authority has reasonable grounds for believing that the applicant–
(i)is not the person that he claims to be; or
(ii)would permit another person to whom the badge was not issued to display it on a motor vehicle.
(3) Where a local authority receives an application for a disabled person’s badge and refuses to issue one, it shall give the applicant particulars of the grounds of refusal in its notice of determination.
