Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
EXPLANATORY NOTE
These Regulations amend the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (Fees) Regulations 1988 (“the 1988 Regulations”). The 1988 Regulations prescribe the fees payable in connection with the issue of special certificates of approval for vehicles used to carry dangerous goods, in pursuance of the European Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR). An “ADR certificate” is a special certificate of approval as defined in regulation 2 of the 1988 Regulations. “ADR” is short for “Accord Européen Relatif au Transport International des Marchandises Dangereuses par Route”.
Regulation 2 increases the fees prescribed by the 1988 Regulations where an application is made for an ADR certificate. The increased fees are set out in the Table below (with the percentage increase since the fees were last fixed shown in brackets).
| Nature of service | Existing fee (£) | Substituted fee (£) |
|---|---|---|
| The inspection in relation to an application for an ADR certificate where the inspection is carried out on the same day as an examination under the Goods Vehicles (Plating and Testing) Regulations 1988. | 91 | 99 (8.8%) |
| The inspection in relation to an application for an ADR certificate in any other case (to be paid together with the amount payable in respect of an examination under the Goods Vehicles (Plating and Testing) Regulations 1988). | 91 | 99 (8.8%) |
| Where an application is made for a first ADR certificate in respect of a tractor for a semi trailer, and an inspection of the tractor is waived. | 26 | 28 (7.7%) |
| Where a vehicle fails to pass an inspection and arrangements are made for a further inspection to be carried out not more than 14 days after the first inspection. | 46 | 50 (8.7%) |
| Where the inspection in relation to an application for an ADR certificate is not arranged to be carried out on the same day as an examination under the Goods Vehicles (Plating and Testing) Regulations 1988, but is in fact carried out on the same day. | 91 | 99 (8.8%) |
| The issue of a copy of an ADR certificate which has been lost or destroyed. | 13 | 14(7.7%) |
