What happens if operators don return their application forms?
If operators persistently fail to return their application forms, it should be pointed out that they are legally obliged to be registered and that failure to do so makes them guilty of an offence under Part 1, section 1 (1) of the Vehicles (Crime) Act 2001. For each conviction, they will be liable to a fine not exceeding £5,000 (level 5 on the current standard scale).
