Regulation 11 Replacement of certain permits and discs which are lost or destroyed
If a permit granted on or after 6th April 2009, or a corresponding disc, is lost or destroyed the holder must immediately give notice of that fact to the traffic commissioner who granted the permit or issued the disc.
When giving notice under paragraph (1) the holder must—
surrender to the traffic commissioner any corresponding disc or corresponding permit which has not been lost or destroyed; and
indicate whether the holder wishes the traffic commissioner to issue a replacement permit.
Where notice is given under paragraph (1) and the traffic commissioner is satisfied that the permit or disc has been lost or destroyed, the traffic commissioner may, if requested to do so under paragraph (2)(b), issue the holder with a replacement permit and corresponding disc.
A replacement permit and corresponding disc issued by virtue of paragraph (3) must bear the same expiry date as the permit and disc which they replace.
If, at any time after notice has been given under paragraph (1), the permit or disc notified as having been lost or destroyed comes into the possession of the holder, the holder must immediately return that permit or disc to the traffic commissioner who granted or issued it.
Regulation 8 does not apply to a replacement permit issued by a traffic commissioner under paragraph (3).
