Part 1: Regulatory scheme for automated vehicles Chapter 5: Civil sanctions against regulated bodies Section 36: Monetary penalties
Section 36 provides the Secretary of State with the power to issue monetary penalties to a regulated body if satisfied that, as set out in subsection (1), a relevant requirement is not (or has not been) met by the body or the body has failed to comply with any information, interview, compliance or redress notices.
	Subsection (2) provides the Secretary of State with the power to issue a monetary penalty notice to an ASDE if an authorised vehicle has committed a traffic infraction when the entity was responsible for it. Subsection (3) disapplies subsection (2) if it appears that the traffic infraction was wholly caused by a failure of the licensed operator to comply with relevant requirements.
	Subsection (4) clarifies that the monetary penalty notice requires a regulated body to pay a monetary penalty of a sum specified in the notice. Subsections (5) and (6) allows for the penalty notice to specify a daily sum to be paid if a failure is, or may be, a continuing one. This would begin on the day after the notice is issued and end on the day the failure ends, or earlier if specified in the notice.
	Subsection (7) sets out what must be included in the penalty notice: an explanation for the reason for issuing the notice; and the time by which and the manner in which the penalty must be paid. Subsection (8) clarifies that if the monetary penalty is not paid in time, the penalty carries interest. This subsection also gives the Secretary of State the power to recover the penalty (with interest) as a civil debt.
	Subsection (9) provides the Secretary of State with the delegated power to set out in regulation a maximum sum for a single penalty and an ongoing daily penalty. Subsection (10) allows the regulations to determine the sum by reference to the turnover of the regulated body or other entities, or undertakings that are connected with the regulated body.
	Subsection (11) clarifies that the regulated body is not liable both to conviction of an offence under section 24 (false or withheld information relevant to vehicle safety) or 25 (aggravated offence where death or serious injury occurs) and to a monetary penalty under this section. This is to ensure the regulated body is not penalised for the same offence twice.
