Clause 16 - Disposal
Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Bill
9:45 am
Mrs Anne McIntosh (Shadow Minister, Environment and Transport; Vale of York, Conservative)
Clause 16 makes similar amendments to those in the 1984 Act. It allows vehicles displaying neither a valid tax disc nor registration plates to be destroyed immediately, and removes the requirement to wait until the expiry of the tax disc in other cases. I seek confirmation that landowners and other bodies will be consulted, where appropriate, on the guidance notes on disposal and that it will not be left entirely to the Secretary of State.
