Clause 76 - Fixed penalty notices: power to require name and address
Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Bill

Mrs Anne McIntosh (Shadow Minister, Environment and Transport; Vale of York, Conservative)
I am still suffering from shock that the Minister said that members of the Committee should not seek illumination from the regulatory impact assessment, which raises the question why the Government went to such expense and extravagance to produce it. Conservative Members find the regulatory impact assessment extremely useful and I hope that the Minister will confirm that it is a reliable source—that it is not a guesstimate, but an accurate estimate.
I seek clarification of subsection (3), which states:
''A person guilty of an offence under subsection (2) is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale.''
What is the proposed amount?
