## Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Road Vehicles (Registration and Licensing) Regulations 2002.
Regulation 2 provides that information relating to the payment of the mobility supplement of the war pension and the higher rate mobility component of disability living allowance, and to the suspension of an entitlement to receive the latter, is prescribed for the purposes of section 22ZA of the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994. Information so prescribed may be disclosed by the Secretary of State or, in relation to social security functions in Northern Ireland, by the relevant Northern Ireland department to another Secretary of State in order to verify entitlement to an exemption from vehicle excise duty by virtue of the keeper or user of a vehicle being entitled to receive such a benefit.
