Regulation 18 General principles for calculating reduction periodsC1C2
England, Wales and Scotland
Subject to F1paragraph (3), the reduction period is to be determined in relation to each sanctionable failure in accordance with regulations 19, 20 and 21.
Reduction periods are to run consecutively.
Where the reduction period calculated in relation to a sanctionable failure in accordance with regulation 19, 20 or 21 would result in the total outstanding reduction period exceeding 1095 days, the number of days in the reduction period in relation to that failure is to be adjusted so that 1095 days is not exceeded.
