EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Wireless Telegraphy (Automotive Short Range Radar) (Exemption) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/1437), which contain two exemptions from the requirement to be licensed under section 8(1) of the Wireless Telegraphy Act 2006 (c 36). Both exemptions are for the establishment or installation of automotive short range radar equipment in a vehicle and the use of automotive short range radar equipment so established or installed.

These Regulations make amendments to ensure the scope of the Wireless Telegraphy (Automotive Short Range Radar) (Exemption) Regulations 2013 (S.I. 2013/1437) remains the same following the end of the implementation period under the Withdrawal Agreement between the United Kingdom and the European Union.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private or voluntary sector is foreseen.
