Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (Fees) Regulations 2007 (S.I. No. 291 of 2007)

These Regulations were signed by Micheal Martin, Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment, on 13 June 2007 and came into operation from that date.

The Regulations are complementary to the -

(i) Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road Regulations 2007 (the “Principal Regulations”), which apply to the carriage, in tanks, in bulk and in packages, of dangerous goods by road; in implementing the provisions of the technical Annexes to the “European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR) 2007”,

(ii) European Communities (Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road)(ADR Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations 2007, and

(iii) Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road Act 1998 (Appointment of Competent Authorities) Order 2007, which specifies the competent authorities for the purposes of “the Principal Regulations”.

The Regulations revoke and replace the Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (Fees) Regulations 2006 (S.I. No. 408 of 2006).

The Regulations provide for the payment of fees that may be charged by a competent authority, authorised examiner or accreditation body under the Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road Regulations 2007.

There are no changes introduced other than references to the associated Regulations.
