SCRAP METAL DEALERS

This Order brings into force the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 (“the 2013 Act”), which repeals the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 1964 and the system of registration contained therein, and replaces it with a new system of licensing, to be administered by local authorities. The 2013 Act also replaces the system of registration for motor salvage operators under the Vehicles (Crime) Act 2001, in that motor salvage operators will now be treated as scrap metal dealers who fall to be licensed under the new regime.
