These Regulations amend the fixed penalty notice provisions made in the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Wearing of Face Coverings on Public Transport) (England) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/592) (“the Public Transport Regulations”) and the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Wearing of Face Coverings in a Relevant Place) (England) Regulations 2020 (S.I. 2020/791) (“the Relevant Place Regulations”).
Those instruments are amended so that when a person is issued with a fixed penalty notice under them, any relevant fixed penalty notices already issued to that person must be taken into account when determining the amount of the fixed penalty that can be imposed.
A “relevant fixed penalty notice” is a fixed penalty notice issued to a person under the Public Transport Regulations or the Relevant Place Regulations.
Where a person received more than one relevant fixed penalty notice before 28th August 2020, only one of those notices may be taken into account for the purposes of determining the amount of the relevant fixed penalty to be imposed.
No impact assessment has been prepared for these Regulations.
