Explanatory note

These Regulations further amend the Public Service Vehicles (Registration of Local Services) Regulations 1986.

Specific provision is made for the fee for an application to register particulars of a community bus service and to vary the particulars of such a service. The fee is £10 in both cases, as opposed to the £30 registration fee and the £27 variation fee for other local services. Community bus services which are provided under service subsidy agreements remain subject to the £30 and £27 fees.

Two paragraphs, regulation 7(2)(g) and 8(2)(a), are omitted. The paragraphs are spent as they related to applications accepted by the traffic commissioner before 26th January 1987.

Other minor amendments are made.
