The Motor Vehicles (Insurance Requirements) (Immobilisation, Removal and Disposal) (Amendment) Regulations 2015

These Regulations (“the 2015 Regulations”) amend the Motor Vehicles (Insurance Requirements) (Immobilisation, Removal and Disposal) Regulations 2011 (“the 2011 Regulations”). The amendments in regulation 2(a) to (d) of the 2015 Regulations have been made in response to the Joint Committee on Statutory Instruments (“JCSI”) 25th report of Session 2010-12 which reported the 2011 Regulations for doubtful vires in four connected respects. Regulation 2(e) of the 2015 Regulations corrects a drafting error that was identified by the Department in relation to the test applied in paragraphs (4) and (8) of regulation 14 of the 2011 Regulations.
