(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 ("the 1986 Regulations").
Regulation 2 amends the definition of "the emissions publication" in Schedule 7B of the 1986 Regulations so as to refer to the most recent edition of the publication entitled "In Service Exhaust Emission Standards for Road Vehicles – Thirteenth Edition". The publication contains in-use emissions limits that petrol-engined cars and light vans are required to meet at MoT and roadside emissions tests. The publication includes information on new models of petrol-engined passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, which have come onto the market since the last amending regulations came into effect on 1st August 2006; it also revises a small amount of data on existing models.
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
