(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations correct defects in the Biofuel (Labelling) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/3349) (“the 2004 Regulations”), and are being issued free of charge to all known recipients of those Regulations.
The provisions corrected include paragraph 5(4)(b) of the Schedule to the 2004 Regulations, which provides for appeals against detention of a sample or records in relation to Scotland, and refers to the High Court of Justiciary as the court of appeal. The Regulations correct this to the sheriff principal (regulation 2(10)). The Regulations also update the reference to a justice of the peace in relation to Northern Ireland, which should now be to a lay magistrate (regulation 2(6)).
A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on business.
