Regulation 27 Compliance notices
If the Secretary of State has reason to believe that a person has committed a breach of these Regulations, the Secretary of State may serve that person with a notice (“a compliance notice”) in accordance with the following paragraph.
A compliance notice must contain the following information—
the Secretary of State’s grounds for believing that a breach of these Regulations has been committed;
the matter that constitutes the breach;
the action that the person must take in order to rectify the breach;
a time limit of not less than 14 days within which this action must be taken;
details of the right of appeal conferred by regulation 29; and
the manner in which and the period within which an appeal may be made.
A compliance notice issued under this regulation may be revoked or varied by the Secretary of State in the case that a monetary penalty notice is subsequently issued in respect of the same breach, or in any other case.
