Part 3: Touting, Advertising and Trading Offences Schedule 3 – Further provision about enforcement Disposal
Paragraph 11 subparagraph (1) provides for the disposal of seized items where they are no longer required by an enforcement authority. However, items may only be disposed of when they have been held for a minimum of 3 months and where it has not been possible for the reasons given in paragraph 11(1)(c) to return the item. For example, if the items were seized from a person who gave a false address, and who could not be contacted by the enforcement authority in another way, the authority could dispose of those items after 3 months.
	Subparagraph (2) sets out that seized items relate to items seized under paragraph 3 or the exercise of relevant powers under Schedule 5 to the Consumer Rights Act. Subparagraph (3) provides that the enforcing authority may dispose in any way they consider appropriate.
	Subparagraph (4) provides that perishable items (such as food) that no longer have any commercial value can be disposed of by an enforcing authority before the end of the 3-month period.
	Subparagraph (5) notes who may be entitled to an item - this is either a person from whom the items were seized or, if not the same person, the person who owns the items.
