Paragraph 5 Service of final notice

If the person who has received a notice of intent does not discharge liability within 28 days the regulator may serve a final notice imposing a fixed monetary penalty.

The regulator may not serve a final notice on a person where the regulator is satisfied that the person would not, by reason of any defence, be liable to be convicted of the offence to which the notice relates.

A regulator who serves a final notice relating to a fixed monetary penalty may not serve any other notice under this Order in relation to the offence.
