(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order sets out the prescribed matters in respect of an objection to a civil penalty issued under the biometric registration provisions of the UK Borders Act 2007. A penalty notice may be issued if a person fails to comply with a requirement of regulations made under the biometric registration provisions of that Act, for example, if the holder of a biometric immigration document fails to notify the Secretary of State that the document has been lost or stolen. This Order prescribes the requirements as to the form and content of the objection notice, the time period within which the notice must be given, and the time period within which the Secretary of State must respond to the notice.
