(This note is not part of the Regulations)
1. These Regulations further amend the Road Vehicles (Registration and Licensing) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1973 in consequence of the Finance Act 1987.
2. Section 2 of the Finance Act 1987 amended the Vehicles (Excise) Act (Northern Ireland) 1972 for the purpose of establishing recovery vehicles as a class of vehicles chargeable with a specific duty of excise.
3. Previously, under section 16 of the 1972 Act a motor trader could take out a trade licence for all recovery vehicles kept by him for the purpose of dealing with disabled vehicles in the course of that business. As a result of the amendments made by the 1987 Act trade licences can no longer be taken out for a recovery vehicle kept for that purpose.
4. Part V of the Principal Regulations deals with trade licences. The amendments remove from Part V the provisions relating to recovery vehicles.
