Regulation 61 Enforcement

The market surveillance authority must enforce these Regulations, and RAMS in its application to lifts and safety components for lifts, or ensure that they are enforced.

The Secretary of State and the Department may appoint a person to act on their behalf for the purposes of enforcing these Regulations and RAMS in its application to lifts and safety components for lifts.

Where the enforcing authority is not also the market surveillance authority, the enforcing authority must notify the market surveillance authority of the proposed action.

In Scotland, only the Lord Advocate may commence proceedings for an offence.
