(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Motor Vehicle Tyres (Safety) Regulations 1994 by reinstating the requirement that part-worn tyres bear an approval mark. This corrects an omission from the Motor Vehicle Tyres (Safety) (Amendment) Regulations 2003.
No regulatory impact assessment has been prepared in respect of these Regulations as no additional costs or savings are anticipated as a consequence of the Regulations coming into force, other than those already identified in the assessment prepared in respect of the Motor Vehicle Tyres (Safety) (Amendment) Regulations 2003. Copies of that regulatory impact assessment can be obtained from the Department for Transport, Zone 2/04, Great Minster House, 76 Marsham Street, London SW1P 4DR. A copy was placed in the library of each House of Parliament.
