  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend the provisions of the Vehicle Excise Duty (Immobilisation, Removal and Disposal of Vehicles) Regulations 1997, which provide for the removal and disposal of unlicensed vehicles found stationary on a public road.\nThe Regulations distinguish between vehicles of no economic value and other vehicles.\nVehicles of no economic value are those where the total prescribed charges payable after a period of seven days in storage will exceed the resale or scrap value of the vehicle. The periods for which the vehicle must be retained before being disposed of and that in which the owner must remove the vehicle from the custodian of it are both reduced.",
