Paragraph 2 Imposition of monetary penaltiesI1

Where an enforcement authority is satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that a person has committed an offence under section 1 or 2 in the authority’s area, the authority may impose a monetary penalty on the person.

In this Schedule “monetary penalty” means a requirement to pay the enforcement authority a penalty of an amount determined by the authority.

In Northern Ireland, the amount of the penalty may not exceed an amount equivalent to level 5 on the standard scale.
