The Heavy Goods Vehicles (Charging for the Use of Certain Infrastructure on the Trans-European Road Network) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018

 

Proposed Negative
Laid on: 30 October 2018
Sift end date: 20 November 2018


These regulations make provision to correct various deficiencies arising as a consequence of exit from the EU. The Regulations convert amounts expressed in Euros to sterling, and ensure that redundant references to the EU, which would require UKG to consult, seek approval from and provide information to, the EU, are all removed.


Road charging is a devolved issue, however when the relevant Directive (1999/62/EC) was previously transposed into UK regulations, the Devolved Administrations (DAs) were content for the UK government to do so on their behalf.  The SI also makes changes to fix deficiencies for the whole of the UK. In practice none of the DAs has any road charging, or any policy to introduce such road charging.
