Paragraph 2 Exemption for individuals wearing advertising attire, displaying advertisements on their bodies or carrying personal propertyI1
Scotland Not yet in force
Advertising is exempt from the advertising offence where it is engaged in by an individual who is—
wearing—
a costume that is an advertisement, or
clothing on which an advertisement is displayed,
displaying an advertisement on the individual’s body, or
carrying or holding personal property on which an advertisement is displayed.
But sub-paragraph (1) does not apply where the individual knows or had reasonable cause to believe that the individual is participating in ambush marketing.
The application of this exemption to an individual does not affect the application of section 12(1) to any other person (whether in respect of the same type of advertising or otherwise).
