Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

These Regulations replace the Customs and Excise (Community Transit) Regulations 1987. They provide for a penalty and forfeiture in the case of breaches of certain provisions of Community legislation relating to the transit of goods. The penalty proceedings and forfeiture procedure are governed by the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979. The principal change effected by these Regulations is the replacement of the Schedule to the 1987 Regulations by that contained in these Regulations to take account of the repeal of Commission Regulation 223/77 in view of the introduction of the Single Administrative Document and its replacement by Commission Regulations (EEC) Nos. 1062/87 and 2823/87. These Regulations also give the Commissioners of Customs and Excise the power to require goods under the internal or external Community transit procedure within the United Kingdom to be moved by routes specified by them. Community legislation on transit of goods is additionally set out in Council Regulation (EEC) No. 222/77 and also in Council Regulation (EEC) Nos. 678/85 and 679/85 (OJ No. L79, 21.3.85, pp.1 and 7) and Commission Regulations (EEC) Nos. 2791/86 and 2792/86 (OJ No. L263, 15.9.86, pp.1 and 59.).

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
