(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Civil Enforcement of Parking Contraventions (England) General Regulations 2007 ("the General Regulations"). Regulation 3 of these Regulations amends regulation 2 of the General Regulations so that references in those Regulations (except regulation 6) to a "civil enforcement officer" include, in relation to parking contraventions in a civil enforcement area outside Greater London relating to a parking place provided or authorised under section 32(1)(a) or (b) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, a parking attendant appointed under section 63A of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. Regulation 4 amends regulation 6 of the General Regulations so as to disapply, as respects such contraventions, the requirement that a penalty charge is not to be imposed except on the basis of a record produced by an approved device or information given by a civil enforcement officer as to conduct observed by that officer.
An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
