Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations further amend the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 (“the 1986 Regulations”).
Regulation 2(2) amends the definition of “the Community Recording Equipment Regulation” in regulation 3 of the 1986 Regulations to take into account amendments made to Council Regulation (EEC) No. 3821/85.
Regulation 2(3) amends the definition of “the emissions publication” in Schedule 7B to the 1986 Regulations so as to refer to the most recent edition of the publication, entitled “In Service Exhaust Emission Standards for Road Vehicles-Sixteenth Edition” (ISBN 978-0-9549352-6-9). The publication contains in-use emissions limits that petrol-engined cars and light vans are required to meet at MoT and roadside emissions tests. The publication updates information on new models of petrol-engined passenger cars and light commercial vehicles which have come onto the market since the previous amending Regulations (S.I. 2009/1806) came into force on 1st August 2009; it also revises a small amount of data on existing models.
