Abstract

The amendments are as follows: (a) a definition of "local authority" is added to the list of definitions in regulation 2(1) of the principal Regulations (reg. 2(2)); (b) regulation 4 of the principal Regulations is amended to make it clear that where the Scottish Ministers have issued a distinguishing number to an establishment prior to the commencement of the principal Regulations (31 December 2003), that establishment does not require to re-apply for a distinguishing number under the principal Regulations (reg. 2(3)(b)); (c) regulation 5 of the principal Regulations is amended to ensure that where the person who would otherwise be obliged to notify a change of information under regulation 5(2) is no longer connected to the establishment, the requirement to notify that change will fall to the new owner or keeper (reg. 2(4)); (d) a new offence of continuing to operate an establishment following removal from the register is added to regulation 7 of the principal Regulations (reg. 2(5)(b)); (e) regulation 8(2) of the principal Regulations is amended to clarify that it is the establishment which has been allocated a distinguishing number and not the person applying for it (reg. 2(6)); (f) the penalties for committing an offence under the principal Regulations are amended.
