The Road Vehicles (Registration and Licensing) (Amendment) Regulations 1994 *** ***See the correction at the end of this SI. ***
These Regulations authorise the Secretary of State to make particulars contained in the register of mechanically propelled vehicles available to (a) local authorities (in connection with the investigation of an offence or of a decriminalised parking contravention), (b) the police and (c) any person who can show reasonable cause. The particulars are provided free of charge for (a) and (b) and on payment of a fee of an amount appearing to the Secretary of State to be reasonable in the circumstances of the case for (c). This discretionary fee supersedes the fixed fee of £3.50 which was prescribed in 1986.
