The Transport Tribunal (Amendment) Rules 2002
These Rules amend the Transport Tribunal Rules 2000 in order to provide for the transfer to the Tribunal, by section 258 of the Transport Act 2000, of jurisdiction for appeals against decisions of the registrar of approved driving instructors under section 131 of the Road Traffic Act 1988. The appeals were previously heard by the Secretary of State for Transport and concern decisions by the Registrar regarding the registration of instructors and the granting of trainee instructors' licenses. The rules of general application are amended in order to incorporate the new jurisdiction, and the new Parts IIA and IVA provide for the specific manner in which such cases are to be dealt with.
