EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Rail Vehicle Accessibility (South West Trains Class 458 Vehicles) Exemption Order 2002 (S.I. 2002/656, amended by S.I. 2002/1762), which authorises the use of specified rail vehicles even though they do not conform with the Rail Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 1998 (S.I. 1998/2456, amended by S.I. 2000/3215). This Order extends the expiry date of the exemption granted because the internal public information system is not fully compliant with the Regulations, and amends the general provision governing cessation of the authorisation.
