S.L. 65.15 Art. 47

(1) The Authority shall have the discretionary power to impose the administrative penalties prescribed in the Fourteenth Schedule on any undertaking who breaches regulation 39(1) and/or whose vehicle has been found to have major or dangerous deficiencies following a more detailed inspection.

(2) Where an administrative penalty has been imposed in accordance with sub-regulation (1), the inspecting officer shall request the driver to pay a deposit equal to such administrative penalty. The inspecting officer may clamp the vehicle until such deposit has been settled in full; provided that an official receipt shall be given by the inspecting officer to the driver evidencing payment of such deposit. The deposit shall be refunded in the event that an appeal is lodged by the person on whom it is imposed and the Tribunal revokes the administrative penalty imposed upon such person. Where no appeal is lodged within the time stipulated in these regulations or an appeal is lodged and the Tribunal confirms the administrative penalty, the deposit shall be set-off by the Authority against such administrative penalty.
