Consultation seeking views on introducing a more flexible system for:

  • the procedure of setting penalty charge contravention codes
  • simplifying penalty charge bands

The changes involve:

  • removing the requirement that a new order is made each time the contravention codes are amended
  • scrapping the rarely used lower band in penalty charges
