I1E1C241 For the administration of licensing in relation to the activities in connection with which licences are required under Part II of this Act there shall be a licensing authority for the area of each local authority. 2 The licensing authority shall be the local authoritywithin whose area the activity is, or is to be, carried on. 3 Notwithstanding subsection (2) above, a local authorityshall not be exempt from any requirement to have a licence or any other obligation under this Part or Part II of this Act and a licensing authority shall have power to entertain and dispose of an application by a local authority for a licence or in respect of a licence held by them. 1 For the purpose of the discharge of their functions under this Part of this Act, every licensing authority must— a consider each relevant application made to them within the period of 3 months beginning with the relevant date, and b subject to the following provisions of this section, reach a final decision on the application within the period of 6 months beginning with the end of the 3 month period referred to in paragraph (a). 1A In subsection (1) “the relevant date” means—a the date on which the application is made, or b if, on that date, the licensing authority is prevented from considering the application by paragraph 2(2) or 3(2) of Schedule 33 to the Finance Act 2021 (which contain requirements to be complied with before applications may be considered), the date on which the licensing authority ceases to be so prevented. 2 On summary application by the licensing authority within the 6 month period referred to in subsection (1) above, the sheriff may, if it appears to him that there is good reason to do so, extend that period as he thinks fit. 3 The applicant shall be entitled to be a party to a summary application under subsection (2) above. 4 Where the licensing authority have failed to reach a final decision on the application before the expiry of—a the 6 month period referred to in subsection (1) above, or b such further period as the sheriff may have specified on application under subsection (2) above, the licence F526... shall be deemed to have been granted , renewed or, as the case may be, varied F350... on the date of such expiry F528.... 4A A licence deemed to have been granted or renewed under subsection (4) is—a in the case of a temporary licence, to remain in force for the duration of the period sought in the application (up to a maximum period of 6 weeks), or b in any other case, to remain in force for the period of one year. 4B A variation of the terms of a licence deemed to have been granted under subsection (4) is to have effect for the remaining period of the licence. 4C Subsections (4) and (4B) do not affect—a the powers of revocation under section 7(6)(a), b paragraph 8(5) of Schedule 1 (which relates to renewals of existing licences), c the powers of variation under paragraph 10 of that Schedule, or d the powers of suspension and revocation under paragraphs 11 and 12 of that Schedule. 5A The deemed grant, renewal or variation of the terms of a licence under subsection (4) is, for the purposes of Schedule 1, to be treated as a decision of the licensing authority to grant, renew or vary the terms of a licence. 5B For the purposes of this section, a “relevant application” is an application under paragraph 1, 7 or 10 of Schedule 1. 1 The Scottish Ministers may by order made by statutory instrument prescribe conditions to which licences granted by licensing authorities under this Act are to be subject. 2 Different conditions may be prescribed under subsection (1)—a in respect of different licences, or different types of licence, b otherwise for different purposes, circumstances or cases. 3 No order may be made under subsection (1) unless a draft of the statutory instrument containing the order has been laid before and approved by resolution of the Scottish Parliament. 4 Subsection (1) does not affect any other power of the Scottish Ministers under this Act or any other enactment to prescribe conditions—a to which licences granted by licensing authorities under this Act are to be subject, or b to be imposed by licensing authorities in granting or renewing licences under this Act. 5 The following conditions are referred to in this Part and Part 2 of this Act as “mandatory conditions”—a conditions prescribed under subsection (1), b conditions prescribed under any power referred to in subsection (4), and c conditions imposed, or required to be imposed, by any provision of this Part or Part 2 of this Act. 6 In this section and section 3B, references to licences granted by licensing authorities include references to—a licences renewed by licensing authorities, and b licences deemed by virtue of section 3(4) to be granted or renewed by licensing authorities. 1 A licensing authority may determine conditions to which licences granted by them under this Act are to be subject. 2 Conditions determined under subsection (1) are referred to in this Part and Part 2 as “standard conditions”. 3 Different conditions may be determined under subsection (1)—a in respect of different licences, or different types of licence, b otherwise for different purposes, circumstances or cases. 4 A licensing authority must publish, in such manner as they think appropriate, any standard conditions determined by them. 5 Standard conditions have no effect—a unless they are published, and b so far as they are inconsistent with any mandatory conditions. 6 Subsection (1) is subject to paragraph

b the activity provision for the licensing of which is made in section 41 of this Act (that is to say the use of premises as a place of public entertainment) shall specify the place or places, or class or classes thereof, which shall thereby fall to be licensed. 6 A licensing authority shall not make a resolution under this section unless they have—a published in a newspaper or newspapers circulating in their area the terms of the proposed resolution together with a notice stating—i that they intend to make the resolution; and ii that representations about the resolution may be made in writing to the authority within 28 days of the first publication of the notice; and b considered any representations so made. 7 A licensing authority, before proceeding to make a resolution under this section, may make such modifications to the proposed resolution as they think fit in the light of representations made to them about it provided such modifications do not extend its scope. 8 The licensing authority shall, as soon as they have made a resolution under subsection (2) above, publish in a newspaper or newspapers circulating in their area—a the terms of the resolution so made; together with b a notice stating—i that with effect from the date specified as that on which the resolution comes into effect it will be an offence under section 7(1) of this Act to do without a licence whatever the resolution specifies as being an activity requiring to be licensed; and ii that applications for licences in respect of the activity will be considered by the authority after the expiry of one month after the date of the making of the resolution. C49 A resolution under this section may be varied or rescinded by a subsequent resolution made in like manner except that, in relation to the time when it takes effect, a resolution under this subsection—a varying a resolution under this section so as to reduce its scope; or b rescinding a resolution under this section shall take effect on such date as may be specified in it being any date subsequent to the making of the resolution. 10 Anything which must or may be done under or by virtue of Part I or this Part of this Act may, at any time after the making by the licensing authority of the resolution, be done so far as may be necessary or expedient for the purpose of giving full effect to the resolution at or after the time it takes effect but no application for a licence in respect of an activity requiring to be licensed in consequence of the resolution shall be considered by the authority until the expiry of one month after the making of the resolution. 1 A licence, to be known as a “taxi licence” or, as the case may be, a “private hire car licence”, shall be required for the operation of a vehicle as—a a taxi; or b a private hire car. 2 A licensing authority shall not grant or renew a taxi licence or private hire car licence unless they are satisfied that the vehicle to which the licence is to relate is suitable in type, size and design for use as a taxi or private hire car, as the case may be, and is safe for that use, and that there is in force in relation to the vehicle such a policy of insurance or such security as complies with Part VI of the M1Road Traffic Act 1972. 3 Without prejudice to paragraph 5 of Schedule 1 to this Act, the grant of a taxi licence may be refused by a licensing authority for the purpose of limiting the number of taxis in respect of which licences are granted by them if, but only if, they are satisfied that there is no significant demand for the services of taxis in their area which is unmet. 3A Without prejudice to paragraph 5 of Schedule 1, the grant of a private hire car licence may be refused by a licensing authority if, but only if, they are satisfied that there is (or, as a result of granting the licence, would be) overprovision of private hire car services in the locality (or localities) in their area in which the private hire car is to operate. 3B It is for the licensing authority to determine the localities within their area for the purposes of subsection (3A) and in doing so the authority may determine that the whole of their area is a locality. 3C In satisfying themselves as to whether there is or would be overprovision for the purposes of subsection (3A) in any locality, the licensing authority must have regard to—a the number of private hire cars operating in the locality, and b the demand for private hire car services in the locality. 4 A vehicle shall, for the purposes of subsection (2) above, be treated by a licensing authority —a as being suitable in type, size and design if it complies with regulations in that regard made by the Secretary of State under section 20(2) of this Act in respect of their area; and b as not being so suitable if it does not so comply. 5 A taxi licence or private hire car licence shall extend to the operation of a vehicle substituted for the vehicle in respect of which the licence was granted or, as the case may be, last renewed if the licensing authority are as respects the substitute vehicle satisfied as to the matters specified in subsection (2) above, and where a taxi licence or private hire car licence extends under this subsection to a substitute vehicle, subsection (6) below shall not apply in respect of the vehicle replaced by the substitute vehicle. 6 Subject to subsection (5) above, the holder of a taxi or private hire car licence shall within 28 days of his selling or otherwise disposing of the vehicle to which the licence relates deliver to the licensing authority his licence and any licence plate or other thing which has been issued by the licensing authority for the purpose of indicating that the vehicle is a taxi or, as the case may be, private hire car, and if without reasonable excuse he fails to do so he shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. 1 The holder of a taxi or private hire car licence shall present the taxi or private hire car for inspection and testing by or on behalf of the licensing authority within such period and at such place as they may by notice reasonably require. 2 An authorised officer of a licensing authority (as respects a taxi or private hire car licensed for the area of the authority) , an authorised civilian employee or a constable shall have power at any reasonable time to inspect and test, for the purpose of ascertaining its fitness, a licensed taxi or private hire car or, for the purpose of testing its fitness or accuracy, any taximeter and if he is not satisfied as to the safety of the taxi or private hire car for the carriage of passengers or as to the fitness or accuracy of the taximeter he may by notice in writing—a require the holder of the taxi or private hire car licence to make the taxi, private hire car or taximeter, as the case may be, available for further inspection at such reasonable time and place as may be specified in the notice; b suspend the licence until such time as an authorised officer of the licensing authority , an authorised civilian employee or a constable is so satisfied: 1 A licence, to be known as a “taxi driver’s licence” or, as the case may be, a “private hire car driver’s licence”, shall, subject to subsection (2) below, be required for driving or otherwise having charge of a taxi or private hire car. 2 A private hire car driver’s licence shall not be required by the holder of a taxi driver’s licence for driving or otherwise having charge of a private hire car whilst in operation as such. 3 A licensing authority shall not grant a licence to any person under this section unless that person has held, throughout the period of 12 months immediately prior to the date of his application, a licence authorising him to drive a motor car issued under Part III of the M2Road Traffic Act 1972 or a licence which would at the time of his application entitle him to such a licence without taking a test, not being a provisional licence. C393A A licensing authority shall not grant a licence to any person under this section unless the authority is satisfied that the person is not disqualified by reason of the person's immigration status from driving a taxi or private hire car. 3B Section 13A makes provision for the purposes of subsection (3A) about the circumstances in which a person is disqualified by reason of the person's immigration status from driving a taxi or private hire car. 3C In determining for the purposes of subsection (3A) whether a person is disqualified by reason of the person's immigration status from driving a taxi or private hire car, a licensing authority must have regard to any guidance issued by the Secretary of State. 4 A licensing authority may, at any time, for the purposes of satisfying themselves that he is physically fit to drive a taxi or, as the case may be, private hire car, require an applicant for or holder of a taxi driver’s licence or private hire car driver’s licence to submit to medical examination, at their expense, by a medical practitioner nominated by them. 5 A licensing authority may require an applicant for a taxi driver’s licence or a private hire car driver's licence to take a test of his knowledge of the area to which the licence is to relate, of the layout of roads in that area and such other matters relating to the operation of a taxi or, as the case may be, private hire car as the authority consider desirable, and the authority may refuse to grant a licence to a person who does not satisfy them that he has adequate knowledge of any of these matters. 6 If a person holding a licence under this section ceases for any reason to be authorised by law to drive on a road . . . F11 the vehicle to which the licence relates, the licence shall cease to have effect. 1 For the purposes of section 13(3A) a person is disqualified by reason of the person's immigration status from driving a taxi or private hire car if the person is subject to immigration control and—a the person has not been granted leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom, or b the person's leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom—i is invalid, ii has ceased to have effect (whether by reason of curtailment, revocation, cancellation, passage of time or otherwise), or iii is subject to a condition preventing the person from driving a taxi or private hire car. 2 Where a person is on immigration bail within the meaning of Part 1 of Schedule 10 to the Immigration Act 2016—a the person is to be treated for the purposes of this section as if the person had been granted leave to enter the United Kingdom, but b any condition as to the person's work in the United Kingdom to which the person's immigration bail is subject is to be treated for those purposes as a condition of leave. 3 For the purposes of this section a person is subject to immigration control if under the Immigration Act 1971 the person requires leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom. 1 Subject to subsection (2) below, there shall not be displayed on or in a private hire car any word, sign, notice, mark, illumination or other feature which may suggest that the vehicle is available for hire as a taxi. 2 Subsection (1) above does not apply in relation to any licence plate or other thing issued by the licensing authority for the purpose of indicating that the vehicle to which it relates is a private hire car or in relation to any sign required by virtue of section 21 of the M3Vehicles (Excise) Act 1971. 3 Any person who—a drives a vehicle in respect of which subsection (1) is contravened; or b causes or knowingly permits that subsection to be contravened in respect of any vehicle, shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 1 A licensing authority, with the agreement of another licensing authority, may name destinations or classes of destinations in the area of the other authority and, with the agreement aforesaid, fix scales under section 17 of this Act for journeys from their area by taxis licensed by them to such destinations or classes thereof. 2 The conditions to which a taxi or taxi driver’s licence are subject shall continue to apply while the taxi or its driver is engaged in such a journey. 3 Nothing in this section or in Part I of this Act enables a condition to be imposed in a taxi driver’s licence requiring him to make any journey to a destination outside the area in respect of which he is licensed. 1 The fares for the hire of taxis in any area and all other charges in connection with the hire of a taxi or with the arrangements for its hire shall be not greater than those fixed for that area under this section and section 18 of this Act. 2 The licensing authority must fix scales for the fares and other charges mentioned in subsection (1) within 18 months beginning with the date on which the scales came into effect. 3 In fixing scales under subsection (2), the licensing authority may—a alter fares or other charges, b fix fares or other charges at the same rates. 4 Before fixing scales under subsection (2), the licensing authority must review the scales in accordance with subsection (4A). 4A In carrying out a review, the licensing authority must—a consult with persons or organisations appearing to it to be, or to be representative of, the operators of taxis operating within its area, b following such consultation—i review the existing scales, and ii propose new scales (whether at altered rates or the same rates), c publish those proposed scales in a newspaper circulating in its area—i setting out the proposed scales, ii explaining the effect of the proposed scales, iii proposing a date on which the proposed scales are to come into effect, and iv stating that any person may make representations in writing until the relevant date, and d consider any such representations. 4B In subsection (4A)(c)(iv)

and b in respect of its driver, a licence under section 13 of that Act. 4 If any person, being the holder of a taxi licence or private hire car licence in respect of a vehicle, permits another person who does not have a current taxi driver’s licence or private hire car driver’s licence, as the case may be, to operate the vehicle as a taxi or, as the case may be, a private hire car he shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale. 5 If any person demands fares or other charges in respect of the hire of a taxi or for the hire of a private hire car which is fitted with a taximeter in excess of the scales established under sections 17 and 18 of this Act, he shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale. 6 If any person without good cause breaks the seal on a taximeter or operates or drives a taxi or private hire car knowing that the seal on its meter has been broken, he shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 60 days or to both. 7 If any person, without reasonable excuse, causes or permits any vehicle other than a taxi to wait on any stance for taxis during any period for which that stance has been appointed by a licensing authority under section 19 of this Act, he shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. 8 Notice of the effect of subsection (7) above shall be indicated by such traffic signs as may be prescribed as authorised for the purpose by the Secretary of State in pursuance of his powers under section 54 of the M7Road Traffic Regulation Act 1967. 1 Nothing in sections 10 to 21 (with the exception of subsection (7) of section 21) of this Act shall—a apply to a vehicle used for bringing passengers or goods within and taking them out of an area in respect of which the vehicle is not licensed as a taxi or a private hire car in pursuance of a contract for the hire of the vehicle made outside the area if the vehicle is not made available for hire within the area; b apply to a vehicle while it is being used in connection with a funeral or wedding; c apply to any vehicle while it is being used for carrying passengers under a contract for its exclusive hire for a period of not less than 24 hours. 2 The Scottish Ministers may by regulations specify further circumstances in which sections 10 to 21 (with the exception of subsection (7) of section 21) are not to apply. 3 Regulations under subsection (2)—a may make transitional, transitory and saving provision, b are subject to the negative procedure. 1 In sections 10 to 22 of this Act— 2 In subsection (1) above, “hire car” means a motor vehicle with a driver (other than a vehicle being a public service vehicle within the meaning of section 1(1)(a) of the M8Public Passenger Vehicles Act 1981) which is, with a view to profit, available for hire by the public for personal conveyance. 3 Notwithstanding that a vehicle in respect of which there is a licence for its operation as a taxi is, on any occasion, engaged as a hire car otherwise than in the manner referred to in subsection (1) above, the enactments relating to its operation as a taxi, and to the driving of it as such (including any such enactments in this Act) shall nonetheless apply in relation to it; and that other manner of engagement on that occasion shall not of itself cause the operation or driving of the licensed taxi to be regarded for the purposes of this Act as the operation or driving of a private hire car within the meaning of subsection (1) above. 1 Subject to subsection (3) below, a licence, to be known as a “second-hand dealer’s licence”, shall be required for carrying on business as a second-hand dealer. 2 In this section and in sections 25 to 27 and 36 of this Act “second-hand dealer” means a person carrying on a business as a dealer in second-hand goods or articles of any description. 3 A second-hand dealer’s licence shall not be required for carrying on—a the business of a pawnbroker (that is to say, a person who, under a regulated agreement under the M9Consumer Credit Act 1974, takes an article in pawn); b a business as a wholesale dealer purchasing exclusively from second-hand dealers licensed under this Act; c the business of a charity (that is to say, a body which is entered in the Scottish Charity Register);

and conditions so attached may, without prejudice to the authority’s power under this subsection, include provision as to—a the information to be included in these records; b their form; c the premises where they are to be kept; and d the period for which they are to be kept. 5 A second-hand dealer acquiring a second-hand motor vehicle for the purpose of its re-sale in the course of his business shall keep a record of the mileage reading on the vehicle’s odometer when he acquired it. 6 Any person who contravenes subsection (5) above shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 7 It shall be a defence for a person charged with an offence under subsection (6) above to prove that he used all due diligence to prevent the commission of the offence. 1 Subject to subsections (2) and (3) below and section 27 of this Act, a second-hand dealer shall not dispose of any item of his stock-in-trade until the expiry of 48 hours (excluding any time on Saturdays or Sundays) after he acquired it. 2 Subsection (1) above shall not apply to any article acquired by the dealer in a public roup and disposed of by him without being brought to his place of business. 3 A licensing authority may, on granting a second-hand dealer’s licence or at any time thereafter, on application by the dealer and after consultation with the chief constable, order that subsection (1) above shall not apply to the disposal by the dealer of any item, or any specified item or class of items, of his stock-in-trade or any specified part of it. 4 An order under subsection (3) above may—a be made subject to such conditions as the authority think fit; b relate to stock-in-trade or items thereof still to be acquired by the dealer to whom the order relates; or c be varied or revoked at any time by the licensing authority. 5 In subsection (3) above, “specified” means specified in an order under that subsection. 6 A holder of a second-hand dealer’s licence may appeal to the sheriff against a decision of the licensing authority under this section and paragraph 24(3) to (9) and (11) and (12) of Schedule 1 to this Act shall, with any necessary modifications, apply to an appeal under this subsection. 7 Any person who contravenes subsection (1) above shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 1 Any person who, when selling anything to a second-hand dealer, gives the dealer a false name or address shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 2 If anything is offered to a second-hand dealer in the course of his business and he has reason to believe that it has been stolen or otherwise unlawfully obtained he may, subject to subsection (3) below, detain the person offering it and a constable may arrest that person and take possession of it. 3 Nothing in subsection (2) above authorises a second-hand dealer to detain a person longer than is reasonably necessary for obtaining the attendance of a constable. 4 No civil liability shall arise as a result only of the detention in good faith of a person under subsection (2) above. 1 Where a second-hand dealer is convicted of an offence relating to second-hand dealing, the court by which he is convicted may make any order which it is competent to make under section 7(6) of this Act and an extract of such conviction and sentence (if any) shall, within 6 days after the date of the conviction, be transmitted by the clerk of the court to the licensing authority which granted the licence. 2 Where a second-hand dealer is convicted—a of an offence relating to second-hand dealing; or b of an offence which in the opinion of the court is an offence involving dishonesty, the court may, in addition to any other order which it is competent to make, order that he shall not dispose of any second-hand goods acquired by him until the expiry of a period of 7 days after their acquisition. 3 In making an order under subsection (2) above, the court shall specify a period not exceeding 2 years for which it is to remain in force, but the court may revoke such an order at any time on the application of the person to whom it relates. 4 Any person who fails to comply with an order made in relation to him under subsection (2) above shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 60 days or to both. 1 A licence, to be known as a “knife dealer's licence”, is required for carrying on business as a dealer in any article mentioned in subsection (2). 2 Those articles are—a knives (other than folding pocket knives whose blades do not exceed 3.5 inches (8.91 centimetres) in length or knives designed for domestic use); aa daggers (other than kirpans or skean dhus whose blades do not exceed exceed 3.5 inches (8.91 centimetres) in length); b knife blades (other than those designed for domestic use); c swords; d any other article—i which has a blade; or ii which is sharply pointed, and which is made or adapted for use for causing injury to the person. 3 A knife dealer's licence shall, in addition to specifying the activity which the dealer engages in, specify the premises in or from which the activity is to be carried on. C364 In subsections (1) and (3), “dealer” means a person carrying on a business which consists wholly or partly of—a selling; b hiring; c offering for sale or hire; d exposing for sale or hire; e lending; or f giving, to persons not acting in the course of a business or profession any article mentioned in subsection (2)
(whether or not the activities mentioned in paragraphs (a) to (f) are carried out incidentally to a business which would not, apart from this section, require a knife dealer's licence). 5 In subsection (4), “selling”, in relation to an article mentioned in subsection (2)—a includes—i selling such an article by auction; ii accepting goods or services in payment (whether in part or in full) for such an article; but b does not include selling (by auction or otherwise) such an article by one person on behalf of another; and “sale” is to be construed accordingly. 6 For the purposes of subsection (4), an article is not to be treated as being exposed for sale if it is exposed for sale (by auction or otherwise) by a person other than the owner. 7 The Scottish Ministers may by order modify subsection (2) so as to—a add articles or classes of article; b amend descriptions of articles or classes of article; c remove articles or classes of article. 8 The Scottish Ministers may by order—a modify subsection (4) so as to modify the definition of “dealer”; b specify descriptions of activity which are not to be taken to be businesses for the purposes of that subsection (or that subsection as modified). 9 The power in subsection (8)(a) includes in particular power to add descriptions of business. 1 A licensing authority must cause public notice to be given of every application made to them for the grant or renewal of a knife dealer's licence. 2 Sub-paragraph (8) of paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 applies to the giving of public notice under subsection (1) as it applies to the giving of public notice under sub-paragraph (7) of that paragraph. 1 In granting or renewing a knife dealer's licence, a licensing authority—a must attach to the licence such conditions as are specified (in particular or in general) by order by the Scottish Ministers; b may, without prejudice to section 3B and
paragraph 5 of Schedule 1, attach to the licence different conditions in relation to different articles or different classes of article; c may, without prejudice to that section and
paragraph, attach to the licence conditions for or in connection with—i the keeping of records by the holder of the licence; ii the storage of articles mentioned in section 27A(2); and iii the display of such articles. 2 An order under subsection (1)(a) may provide for different conditions to apply to different articles or different classes of article. 1 Subsection (2) applies where the holder of a knife dealer's licence (“the dealer”)—a is required by the licence to obtain information of a type specified in the licence from a person; and b the dealer requests (whether orally, in writing or otherwise) the information from the person. 2 A person, or any person acting on behalf of the person, who knowingly or recklessly provides false information in response to a request under subsection (1)(b) is guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 1 Subsection (2) applies if a justice of the peace or sheriff is satisfied by evidence on oath that—a subsection (3) applies; and b subsection (4) or (5) applies. 2 The justice of the peace or sheriff may grant a warrant authorising a constable or an authorised officer—a to enter and search the premises specified in the warrant; and b to seize and remove any relevant article. 3 This subsection applies if there are reasonable grounds for suspecting that a person (the “suspect”) is carrying on in any premises an activity in respect of which a knife dealer's licence is required under section 27A. 4 This subsection applies if no knife dealer's licence is in force in respect of the activity. 5 This subsection applies if a knife dealer's licence is in force in respect of the activity but there are reasonable grounds for suspecting that the suspect has failed, or is failing, to comply with a condition of the licence. 1 A constable or an authorised officer may use reasonable force in executing a warrant granted under section 27E(2). 2 Where a constable who is not in uniform is about to enter, is entering or has entered any premises under the powers conferred under section 27E(2) he must, if required to do so by a person in or upon the premises, produce his identification. 3 Where an authorised officer is about to enter, is entering or has entered any premises under the powers conferred under section 27E(2) he must, if required to do so by a person in or upon the premises, produce his authorisation. 4 If a constable has been required to produce his identification under subsection (2) he is not entitled to enter or search the premises or, as the case may be, remain there or continue to search the premises until he has produced it. 5 If an authorised officer has been required to produce his authority under subsection (3), he is not entitled to enter or search the premises or, as the case may be, remain there or continue to search the premises until he has produced it. 6 Any person who—a fails without reasonable excuse to permit a constable, or an authorised officer, acting in pursuance of a warrant granted under section 27E(2) to enter and search any premises; or b obstructs the entry to, or search of, any premises by a constable or an authorised officer so acting, is guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 7 Any relevant article which has been seized and removed under a warrant granted under section 27E(2) may be retained until the conclusion of proceedings against the suspect. 8 For the purposes of subsection (7), proceedings in relation to a suspect are concluded if—a he is found guilty and sentenced or otherwise dealt with for the offence; b he is acquitted; c proceedings for the offence are discontinued; d it is decided not to prosecute him. 9 In this section, “suspect” is to be construed in accordance with section 27E(3). 1 Subsection (2) applies where—a a constable or an authorised officer has reasonable grounds for suspecting that an activity in respect of which a knife dealer's licence is required under section 27A is being carried on; and b no such licence is in force in respect of the activity. 2 The constable or authorised officer may—a require a relevant person to produce any records or other documents connected with the activity, b inspect any such records or documents, and c take copies of, or extracts from, any such records or documents. 3 A relevant person who—a is required under subsection (2) to produce records or documents; and b fails without reasonable excuse to do so, is guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 4 Before exercising the power conferred by subsection (2)—a a constable who is not in uniform must produce his identification to the relevant person; b an authorised officer must produce his authorisation to the relevant person. 5 For the purposes of this section, a person is “relevant” if the constable or authorised officer has reasonable grounds for believing that the person has access to the records or documents. 1 In sections 27E and 27F— 2 In sections 27E to 27G, “authorised officer” means an officer of a licensing authority authorised by the authority for the purposes of section 27E, 27F or, as the case may be, 27G. 1 Subsection (2) applies where a person (“the offender”) is convicted of an offence under subsection (A1) or (2) of section 7 in relation to a relevant article—a seized by virtue of a warrant granted under section 27E(2); or b in the offender's possession or control at the relevant time. 2 The court by which the offender is convicted may make an order for forfeiture (a “forfeiture order”) in respect of the relevant article. 3 The court may make a forfeiture order—a whether or not it also deals with the offender in respect of the offence in any other way; and b without regard to any restrictions on forfeiture in any enactment. 4 In considering whether to make a forfeiture order, the court must have regard to—a the value of the relevant article; and b the likely financial and other effects on the offender of the making of the order (taken together with any other order that the court contemplates making). 5 In this section— 1 A forfeiture order under section 27J(2) operates to deprive the offender of any rights he has in the property to which it relates. 2 The property to which a forfeiture order relates must be taken into the possession of the police. 3 The court by which the offender is convicted may, on the application of a person who—a claims property to which a forfeiture order relates; but b is not the offender from whom it was forfeited, make an order (a “recovery order”) for delivery of the property to the applicant if it appears to the court that he owns it. 4 An application under subsection (3) must be made—a in such manner as may be prescribed by Act of Adjournal; and b before the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the date on which the forfeiture order was made. 5 An application may be granted only if the applicant satisfies the court that—a he had not consented to the offender's having possession of the property; or b he did not know, and had no reason to suspect, that the offence was likely to be committed. 6 If a person has a right to recover property which, by virtue of a recovery order, is in the possession of another, that right—a is not affected by the making of the recovery order at any time before the end of the period of 6 months beginning with the day on which the order is made; b is lost at the end of that period. 7 The Scottish Ministers may by order make provision for or in connection with the disposal of property forfeited under a forfeiture order in cases where—a no application under subsection (3) has been made before the end of the 6 month period beginning with the day on which the forfeiture order was made; or b no such application has succeeded. 8 An order under subsection (7) may in particular make provision for—a dealing with any proceeds from the disposal; b investing money; and c auditing accounts. a section 5 (in so far as the offence relates to a knife dealer's licence); b section 7 (in so far as the offence so relates); c section 27D; d section 27F; or e section 27G, is proved to have been committed with the consent or connivance of, or to be attributable to any neglect on the part of, a partner, the partner as well as the partnership is guilty of the offence and is liable to be proceeded against and punished accordingly.a by virtue of section 24 requires a second-hand dealer's licence; and b by virtue of section 27A requires a knife dealer's licence, the person requires the appropriate licence in respect of each activity.1 This section applies where, in connection with the sale of an article mentioned in section 27A(2)—a the premises (the “relevant premises”) from which the article is dispatched in pursuance of the sale are not the same as those where the order for the article is taken (the “sale premises”), b the relevant premises are in Scotland, and c the sale premises are not in Scotland. 2 For the purposes of this Act the sale of the article is to be treated as taking place on the relevant premises. 1 Subsection (2) applies where, in connection with the sale of an article mentioned in section 27A(2)—a the relevant premises are situated in the area of a local authority, and b the sale premises are situated in the area of another local authority which, by virtue of section 2(2), is the licensing authority in respect of the taking of the order for the article. 2 For the purposes of this Act, the sale of the article is to be treated as taking place—a on the relevant premises, and b on the sale premises. 3 In this section, “relevant premises” and “sale premises” have the same meanings as in section 27N. 1 Subsection (2) applies where an application is made to a licensing authority for the grant or renewal of a second-hand dealer's licence by the holder of a knife dealer's licence issued by that authority. 2 In granting the application, the licensing authority must not impose any condition which conflicts, or is inconsistent, with a condition of the knife dealer's licence. 3 Subsection (4) applies where an application is made to a licensing authority for the grant or renewal of a knife dealer's licence by the holder of a second-hand dealer's licence issued by that authority. 4 In granting the application, the licensing authority must, in accordance with paragraph 10 of Schedule 1, vary the terms and conditions of the second-hand dealer's licence to avoid any conflict or inconsistency with the terms or conditions of the knife-dealer's licence. a section 5 (in so far as the offence relates to a knife dealer's licence); b section 7 (in so far as the offence so relates); c section 27D; d section 27F; or e section 27G, is subject to such exceptions as may be specified in the order.1 Any power conferred by section 27A(7), 27A(8), 27C(1)(a), 27K(7) or 27R to make orders is exercisable by statutory instrument. 2 Subject to subsection (3), a statutory instrument containing an order under any of those sections is subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of the Scottish Parliament. 3 A statutory instrument containing an order under section 27R may not be made unless a draft of the instrument has been laid before, and approved by resolution of, the Scottish Parliament. 1 A “metal dealer’s licence”, shall be required for carrying on business as a metal dealer.

dealer’s licence shall have effect so as to permit the licence holder to carry on business as an itinerant metal dealer anywhere in Scotland. 1 A metal dealer or an itinerant metal dealer may pay for metal only by a method of payment specified in subsection (2). 2 The methods of payment are—a by means of a cheque which under section 81A of the Bills of Exchange Act 1882 is not transferable, or b

the dealer, the person with day to day management of the place, b in any case, any person who, acting on behalf of the metal dealer or the itinerant metal dealer, makes the payment. 5 It is a defence for a metal dealer, an itinerant metal dealer or a person described in subsection (4)(a) who is charged with an offence under this section to prove that the dealer or, as the case may be, person—a made arrangements to ensure that the payment was to be made only in accordance with subsection (1), and b took all reasonable steps to ensure that those arrangements were complied with. 6 A person who commits an offence under this section is liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale. 7 The Scottish Ministers may by regulations—a amend subsection (2) so as to add, amend or remove methods of payment, and b make such consequential modification of section 33B or 33C(3) as they consider appropriate. 8 Regulations under subsection (7) are subject to the affirmative procedure. 9 In this section, “place of business” means a place of business operated by a metal dealer in the ordinary course of that dealer's business as a metal dealer. 1 In section 33A(2)(b), “bank or building society account” means an account held with a bank or a building society. 2 For the purposes of subsections (1) and (4)—a “bank” means an authorised deposit-taker that has its head office or a branch in the United Kingdom, and b “building society” has the same meaning as in the Building Societies Act 1986. 3 In subsection (2)(a), “authorised deposit-taker” means—a a

at the time when the entry in the record relating to that metal is to be made, e the method of payment of the price (if applicable), f where no price is payable for the metal, the value of the metal at the time when the entry is to be made as estimated by the dealer, g in the case of metal delivered to the dealer by means of a vehicle, the registration mark (within the meaning of section 23 of the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994) borne by the vehicle. 3 Where the dealer has paid for metal, the dealer must keep a copy of—a the cheque, or b the document evidencing the electronic

acquired, processed or disposed of by metal dealers or itinerant metal dealers. 7 Regulations under subsection (6)—a may make different provision for different purposes, and b are subject to the negative procedure. 1 A metal dealer or an itinerant metal dealer (“a dealer”) must record the required information—a in books with serially numbered pages, or b by means of a device for storing and processing information. 2 Where a dealer records the required information in books, the dealer must use separate books for recording the required information about—a metal acquired, and b metal processed or disposed of. 3 Where a dealer uses a device for storing and processing information, the dealer must, by means of the device or otherwise, keep details of all modifications made in the records kept by the device. 4 Where a dealer is required to keep a copy of a document under section 33C, it is sufficient for the dealer—a to keep an electronic copy of the document, and b in relation

level 4 on the standard scale. 4 Any person who, when selling metal to or purchasing metal from a metal dealer or itinerant metal dealer, gives the dealer a false name or address shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 1 Where a metal dealer or itinerant metal dealer is convicted of an offence relating to his business as such, the court by which he is convicted may make any order which it is competent to make under section 7(6) of this Act and an extract of such conviction and sentence (if any) shall, within 6 days after the date of the conviction, be transmitted by the clerk of the court to the licensing authority which granted the licence. 2 Where a metal dealer is convicted—a of an offence relating to his business as such; or b of any offence which in the opinion of the court is an offence involving dishonesty, the court may, in addition to any other order which it is competent to make, order that he shall not dispose of or process any metal acquired by him until the expiry of a period of 7 days after its acquisition. 3 In making an order under subsection (2) above, the court shall specify a period not exceeding 2 years for which it is to remain in force, but the court may revoke such an order at any time on the application of the person to whom it relates. 4 Any person who fails to comply with an order made in relation to him under subsection (2) above shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale or to

passes a resolution under section 45B(1). 2 The local authority must prepare a statement of their policy with respect to the exercise of their functions in relation to the licensing of sexual entertainment venues (a “SEV policy statement”). 3 In preparing a SEV policy statement, a local authority must—a consider the impact of the licensing of sexual entertainment venues in their area, having regard, in particular, to how it will affect the objectives of—i preventing public nuisance, crime and disorder, ii securing public safety, iii protecting children and young people from harm, iv reducing violence against women, and b consult such persons or bodies as they consider appropriate. 4 The local authority must publish the SEV policy statement at the same time and in the same manner as they publish the notice of the resolution under section 45B(4). 5 The local authority must—a from time to time review the SEV policy statement and make such revisions as they consider appropriate (if any), and b publish the revised statement in such manner as they consider appropriate. 6 Subsection (3) applies to a review of a SEV policy statement as it applies to preparing such a statement. 7 In exercising their functions in relation to the licensing of sexual entertainment venues, a local authority must have regard to their SEV policy statement or revised statement. 8 In this section— 1 For the purpose of the discharge of their functions under this Part, every local authority must—a consider each relevant application made to them within the period of 3 months beginning with the date on which the application was made, and b subject to the following provisions of this section, reach a final decision on the application within the period of 6 months beginning with the end of the 3 month period referred to in paragraph (a). 2 On an application by the local authority within the 6 month period referred to in subsection (1)(b), the sheriff may, if it appears that there is a good reason to do so, extend that period as the sheriff thinks fit. 3 The applicant is entitled to be a party to proceedings on an application under subsection (2). 4 Where the local authority have failed to reach a final decision on the application before the expiry of—a the 6 month period referred to in subsection (1)(b), or b such further period as the sheriff may have specified on application under subsection (2), the licence is deemed to have been granted, renewed or, as the case may be, varied on the date of such expiry. 5 A licence deemed to have been granted or renewed under subsection (4) is to remain in force for the period of one year. 6 A deemed variation of the terms of a licence deemed under subsection (4) is to have effect for the remaining period of the licence. 7 Subsections (4) and (6) do not affect—a the powers of revocation under paragraph 13 of Schedule 2, and b the powers of variation under paragraph 15 of that Schedule. 8 The deemed grant, renewal or variation of the terms of a licence under subsection (4) has the same effect, for the purposes of Schedule 2, as a decision of the licensing authority to grant, renew or vary the terms of a licence. 9 For the purposes of this section, a “relevant application” is an application under paragraph 6 or 15 of Schedule 2. 1 The Scottish Ministers may by order prescribe conditions to which licences granted by local authorities under this Part are to be subject. 2 Different conditions may be prescribed under subsection (1)—a in respect of different licences or different types of licence, b otherwise for different purposes, circumstances or cases. 3 An order under subsection (1) is subject to the affirmative procedure. 4 Subsection (1) does not affect any other power of the Scottish Ministers under this Act or any other enactment to prescribe conditions—a to which licences granted by local authorities under this Part are to be subject, or b to be imposed by local authorities in granting or renewing licences under this Part. 5 The following conditions are referred to in this Part as “mandatory conditions”—a conditions prescribed under subsection (1), b conditions prescribed under any power referred to in subsection (4), and c conditions imposed, or required to be imposed, by any provision of this Part. 6 In this section and section 45F, references to licences granted by local authorities include references to—a licences renewed by local authorities, and b licences deemed by virtue of section 45D to have been granted or renewed by local authorities. 1 A local authority may determine conditions to which licences granted by them under this Part are to be subject. 2 Conditions determined under subsection (1) are referred to in this Part as “standard conditions”. 3 Different conditions may be determined under subsection (1)—a in respect of different licences or different types of licence, b otherwise for different purposes, circumstances or cases. 4 A local authority must publish, in such manner as they think appropriate, any standard conditions determined by them. 5 Standard conditions have no effect—a unless they are published, and b so far as they are inconsistent with any mandatory conditions. 6 Subsection (1) is subject to paragraph 9(1A) of Schedule 2. 1 Each local authority must appoint for their area one or more officers (a “civic licensing standards officer”)—a to exercise, in relation to the authority's area, the general functions conferred on civic licensing standards officers by virtue of section 45H, and b to exercise any other functions that may be conferred on such an officer by virtue of this or any other enactment. 2 A civic licensing standards officer appointed by a local authority is taken to be an authorised officer of the authority for the purposes of Parts 1 to 3. 3 A person may hold more than one appointment under subsection (1) (so as to be a civic licensing standards officer for more than one local authority area). 4 Nothing in this section prevents an officer of a local authority other than a civic licensing standards officer from being an authorised officer of the authority for a purpose of Parts 1 to 3. 5 In this Part, a reference to a local authority includes a reference to that authority acting as the licensing authority for their area and a reference to an authorised officer of a local authority (however expressed) is to be construed accordingly. 1 The general functions of a civic licensing standards officer are—a to provide to any interested person information and guidance concerning the operation of Parts 1 to 3 in the officer's area, b to supervise the compliance by the holder of a licence granted under Parts 1 to 3 in the officer's area with—i the conditions of the licence, and ii the other requirements of Parts 1 to 3, c to provide mediation services for the purposes of avoiding or resolving disputes or disagreements between—i the holder of a licence granted under Parts 1 to 3 in the officer's area, and ii any other person, concerning any matter relating to compliance with the conditions of the licence or the other requirements of Parts 1 to 3. 2 The function under subsection (1)(b) includes, in particular, power for a civic licensing standards officer, where the officer believes that a condition to which the licence is subject has been or is being breached—a to give a notice to the holder of the licence requiring such action to be taken to remedy the breach as may be specified in the notice, and b to refer the breach to the local authority which granted the licence for consideration at a meeting of the authority. 3 A civic licensing standards officer may only refer a breach of a condition under subsection (2)(b) if—a the officer has given notice under subsection (2)(a) and the holder of the licence has failed to comply with it, or b the officer considers that it is appropriate for the breach to be referred to the authority without such a notice being given. 4 In this section, a reference to an officer's area is a reference to—a the local authority area for which the officer is appointed under section 45G(1), or b where the officer is appointed for more than one local authority area, the area for which the officer is exercising a function at the relevant time. 1 A prostitute (whether male or female) who for the purposes of prostitution—a loiters in a public place; b solicits in a public place or in any other place so as to be seen from a public place; or c importunes any person who is in a public place, shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. 2 In subsection (1) above, “public place” has the same meaning as in section 133 of this Act but includes—a any place to which at the material time the public are permitted to have access, whether on payment or otherwise; and b any public conveyance other than a taxi or hire car within the meaning of section 23 of this Act. 1 Any person who suffers or permits any creature in his charge to cause danger or injury to any other person who is in a public place or to give such person reasonable cause for alarm or annoyance shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. 2 A district court may, if satisfied that any creature kept in the vicinity of any place where a person resides is giving that person, while in that place, reasonable cause for annoyance, make an order requiring the person keeping the creature to take, within such period as may be specified in the order, such steps (short of destruction of the creature) to prevent the continuance of the annoyance as may be so specified. 3 An application to a district court for an order under subsection (2) above may be made by any person. 4 Any person who fails to comply with an order under subsection (2) above shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. 5 The fact that there is a licence under the M14Dangerous Wild Animals Act 1976 in respect of a creature shall not of itself afford a defence in proceedings under this section relating to that creature. 6 Where a court convicts a person of an offence under this section or discharges him absolutely F328..., it may, whether or not (in the case of conviction) it imposes a penalty under subsection (1) or (4) above—a subject to subsection (8) below, make such order as it sees fit as to the disposal of the creature to which the proceedings relate; b authorise a constable, in pursuance of such an order, to take possession of the creature. 7 An order under subsection (6) above may, subject to any enactment relating to the protection or conservation of living things, be for the destruction of the creature to which it relates. 8 No creature disposed of under an order under subsection (6) above shall be given or sold for the purposes of vivisection. 1 Any person who, while not in the care or protection of a suitable person, is, in a public place, drunk and incapable of taking care of himself shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. 2 Any person who is drunk in a public place while in charge of a child under the age of 10 shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. 3 For the purposes of subsection (2) above, if a child appears to the court to be under the age of 10, the child shall be deemed to be under that age unless the contrary is proved. 4 A constable may arrest a person for contravening subsection (2) above if he has reasonable cause to believe that the child in the charge of that person is under the age of 10. 5 Any person who is drunk in a public place while in possession of a firearm (including a crossbow, airgun, air rifle or air pistol) shall be guilty of an offence and liable, on summary conviction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. 6 In this section, “public place” has the same meaning as in section 133 of this Act but includes—a any place to which at the material time the public are permitted to have access, whether on payment or otherwise; and b any public conveyance other than a taxi or hire car within the meaning of section 23 of this Act. 1 Subject to subsection (4) below, any person who displays any obscene material in any public place or in any other place where it can be seen by the public shall be guilty of an offence under this section. 2 Subject to subsection (4) below, any person who publishes, sells or distributes or, with a view to its eventual sale or distribution, makes, prints, has or keeps any obscene material shall be guilty of an offence under this section. 2A Subject to subsection (4) below, any person who—a is responsible for the inclusion of any obscene material in a programme included in a programme service; or b with a view to its eventual inclusion in a programme so included, makes, prints, has or keeps any obscene material, shall be guilty of an offence under this section. 3 A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable—a on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 12 months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum or to both, or b on conviction on indictment—i in a case where the obscene material is or includes an extreme pornographic image, to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 5 years or to a fine or to both, or ii in any other case, to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 3 years or to a fine or to both. 4 A person shall not be convicted of an offence under this section if he proves that he had used all due diligence to avoid committing the offence. 5 Under an indictment for or on a complaint of a breach of subsection (1) above, the court may, if satisfied that the person accused is guilty of an offence under section 1(1) of the M15Indecent Displays (Control) Act 1981 (offence of public display of indecent matter), convict him of a breach of the said section 1(1). 6 Nothing in this section applies in relation to any matter—a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . F45 b included in a performance of a play (within the meaning of the M16Theatres Act 1968). C87 For section 5(4)(b) of the Indecent Displays (Control) Act 1981 (saving) there shall be substituted the following— 8 In this section— 1 A person who is in possession of an extreme pornographic image is guilty of an offence under this section. 2 An extreme pornographic image is an image which is all of the following—a obscene, b pornographic, c extreme. 3 An image is pornographic if it is of such a nature that it must reasonably be assumed to have been made solely or principally for the purpose of sexual arousal. 4 Where (as found in the person's possession) an image forms part of a series of images, the question of whether the image is pornographic is to be determined by reference to—a the image itself, and b where the series of images is such as to be capable of providing a context for the image, its context within the series of images, and reference may also be had to any sounds accompanying the image or the series of images. 5 So, for example, where—a an image forms an integral part of a narrative constituted by a series of images, and b having regard to those images as a whole, they are not of such a nature that they must reasonably be assumed to have been made solely or principally for the purpose of sexual arousal, the image may, by virtue of being part of that narrative, be found not to be pornographic (even if it may have been found to be pornographic where taken by itself). 6 An image is extreme if it depicts, in an explicit and realistic way any of the following—a an act which takes or threatens a person's life, b an act which results, or is likely to result, in a person's severe injury, c rape or other non-consensual penetrative sexual activity, d sexual activity involving (directly or indirectly) a human corpse, e an act which involves sexual activity between a person and an animal (or the carcase of an animal). 7 In determining whether (as found in the person's possession) an image depicts an act mentioned in subsection (6), reference may be had to—a how the image is or was described (whether the description is part of the image itself or otherwise), b any sounds accompanying the image, c where the image forms an integral part of a narrative constituted by a series of images—i any sounds accompanying the series of images, ii the context provided by that narrative. 8 A person guilty of an offence under this section is liable—a on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 12 months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum or to both, b on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 3 years or to a fine or to both. 9 In this section, an “image” is—a a moving or still image (made by any means), or b data (stored by any means) which is capable of conversion into such an image. 1 An offence is not committed under section 51A if the image is an excluded image. 2 An “excluded image” is an image which is all or part of a classified work. 3 An image is not an excluded image where—a it has been extracted from a classified work, and b it must be reasonably be assumed to have been extracted (whether with or without other images) from the work solely or principally for the purpose of sexual arousal. 4 In determining whether (as found in the person's possession) the image was extracted from the work for the purpose mentioned in subsection (3)(b), reference may be had to—a how the image was stored, b how the image is or was described (whether the description is part of the image itself or otherwise), c any sounds accompanying the image, d where the image forms an integral part of a narrative constituted by a series of images—i any sounds accompanying the series of images, ii the context provided by that narrative. 5 In this section— 1 Where a person (“A”) is charged with an offence under section 51A, it is a defence for A to prove one or more of the matters mentioned in subsection (2). 2 The matters are—a that A had a legitimate reason for being in possession of the image concerned, b that A had not seen the image concerned and did not know, nor had any cause to suspect, it to be an extreme pornographic image, c that A—i was sent the image concerned without any prior request having been made by or on behalf of A, and ii did not keep it for an unreasonable time. 3 Where A is charged with an offence under section 51A, it is a defence for A to prove that—a A directly participated in the act depicted, and b subsection (4) applies. 4 This subsection applies—a in the case of an image which depicts an act described in subsection (6)(a) of that section, if the act depicted did not actually take or threaten a person's life, b in the case of an image which depicts an act described in subsection (6)(b) of that section, if the act depicted did not actually result in (nor was it actually likely to result in) a person's severe injury, c in the case of an image which depicts an act described in subsection (6)(c) of that section, if the act depicted did not actually involve non-consensual activity, d in the case of an image which depicts an act described in subsection (6)(d) of that section, if what is depicted as a human corpse was not in fact a corpse, e in the case of an image which depicts an act described in subsection (6)(e) of that section, if what is depicted as an animal (or the carcase of an animal) was not in fact an animal (or a carcase). 5 The defence under subsection (3) is not available if A shows, gives or offers for sale the image to any person who was not also a direct participant in the act depicted. 6 In this section “image” and “extreme pornographic image” are to be construed in accordance with section 51A. 1 Any person who—a takes, or permits to be taken or makes, any indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph of a child b distributes or shows such an indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph; c has in his possession such an indecent photograph or pseudo-photographwith a view to its being distributed or shown by himself or others: or d publishes or causes to be published any advertisement likely to be understood as conveying that the advertiser distributes or shows such an indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph, or intends to do so shall be guilty of an offence under this section. C322 In subsection (1) above “child” means, subject to subsection (2B) below, a person under the age of 18; and in proceedings under this section a person is to be taken as having been a child at any material time if it appears from the evidence as a whole that he was then under the age of 18. C322A In this section, “pseudo-photograph” means an image, whether produced by computer-graphics or otherwise howsoever, which appears to be a photograph. C322B If the impression conveyed by a pseudo-photograph is that the person shown is a child, the pseudo-photograph shall be treated for all purposes of this Act as showing a child and so shall a pseudo-photograph where the predominant impression conveyed is that the person shown is a child notwithstanding that some of the physical characteristics shown are those of an adult. C322C In this section, references to an indecent pseudo-photograph include—a a copy of an indecent pseudo-photograph; b data stored on a computer disc or by other electronic means which is capable of conversion into an indecent pseudo-photograph . 3 A person guilty of an offence under this section shall be liable—a on summary conviction, to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 6 months or to a fine not exceeding the prescribed sum within the meaning of section 225(8) of the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995 (at the passing of this Act £1,000) or to both; b on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 10 years or to a fine or to both. 4 For the purposes of this section, a person is to be regarded as distributing an indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph if he parts with possession of it to, or exposes or offers it for acquisition by, another person. 4A Where a person is charged with an offence under subsection (1)(a) of making an indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph of a child, it shall be a defence for the person to prove that—a at the time of the offence charged, the person was a member of OFCOM, employed or engaged by OFCOM, or assisting OFCOM in the exercise of any of their online safety functions (within the meaning of section 235 of the Online Safety Act 2023), and b the person made the photograph or pseudo-photograph for the purposes of OFCOM’s exercise of any of those functions. 5 Where a person is charged with an offfence under subsection (1)(b) or (c) above, it shall be a defence for him to prove—a that he had a legitimate reason for distributing or showing the photograph or pseudo-photograph or (as the case may be) having it in his possession; or b that he had not himself seen the photograph or pseudo-photograph and did not know, nor had any cause to suspect, it to be indecent. C96 In paragraph 2 of the Schedule to the M17 Visiting Forces Act 1952 (offences against the person in the case of which a member of a visiting force is in certain circumstances not liable to be tried by a United Kingdom court) the word “ and” immediately preceding sub-paragraph (b)(iii) shall be omitted and after the said sub-paragraph (b)(iii) there shall be added— F3217 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . C338 In this section—a references to an indecent photograph include an indecent film, a copy of an indecent photograph or film and an indecent photograph comprised in a film; b a photograph (including one comprised in a film) shall, if it shows a child and is indecent, be treated for all purposes of this section as an indecent photograph of a child; c references to a photograph include—i the negative as well as the positive version; and ii data stored on a computer disc or by other electronic means which is capable of conversion into a photograph. d “film” includes any form of video-recording. e “OFCOM” means the Office of Communications. 9 In this section, references to a photograph also include a tracing or other image, whether made by electronic or other means (of whatever nature), which is not itself a photograph or pseudo-photograph but which is derived from the whole or part of a photograph or pseudo-photograph (or a combination of either or both). 10 And subsection (2B) applies in relation to such an image as it applies in relation to a pseudo-photograph. 1 It is an offence for a person to have any indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph of a child in his possession. 2 Where a person is charged with an offence under subsection (1), it shall be a defence for him to prove—a that he had a legitimate reason for having the photograph or pseudo-photograph in his possession; or b that he had not himself seen the photograph or pseudo-photograph and did not know, nor had any cause to suspect, it to be indecent; or c that the photograph or pseudo-photograph was sent to him without any prior request made by him or on his behalf and that he did not keep it for an unreasonable time. 3 A person shall be liablea on summary conviction of an offence under this section to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 6 months or toa fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale “or to both.”. b on conviction on indictment of such an offence to imprisonment for a period not exceeding 5 years or to a fine or to both. 4 Subsections (2) to (2C) and (8) to (10) of section 52 of this Act shall have effect for the purposes of this section as they have for the purposes of that section. 1 If subsection (2) below applies, the accused is not guilty of an offence under section 52(1)(a) of this Act of taking or making an indecent photograph of a child. 2 This subsection applies if—a either—i the photograph was of the child aged 16 or over; or ii the accused reasonably believed that to be so; b at the time of the offence charged or at the time when the accused obtained the photograph, the accused and the child were—i married to or civil partners of each other; or ii partners in an established relationship; and c either—i the child consented to the photograph being taken or made; or ii the accused reasonably believed that to be so. 3 If subsection (4) below applies, the accused is not guilty of an offence under section 52(1)(b) of this Act relating to an indecent photograph of a child. 4 This subsection applies if—a either—i the photograph was of the child aged 16 or over;

or ii partners in an established relationship; c either—i the child consented to the photograph's being in the accused's possession; or ii the accused reasonably believed that to be so; and d the accused had the photograph in his possession with a view to its being distributed or shown only to the child. 7 If subsection (8) below applies, the accused is not guilty of an offence under section 52A of this Act relating to an indecent photograph of a child. 8 This subsection applies if—a either—i the photograph was of the child aged 16 or over;

b if they have reason to believe that there has been, is or is likely to be a breach of any condition imposed by them under subsection (5) above, withdraw a permission under this section. 8 Where permission for a collection is refused under subsection (6) above or withdrawn under subsection (7) above, the local authorityshall give written notice of that fact to the organiser of the collection and such notice shall include a statement of the reasons for such refusal or withdrawal. 9 The organiser of a collection may appeal to the sheriff against the decision of a local authority—a under subsection (6) above, refusing permission for a collection;

or b reverse or alter the decision of the local authority. 11 If he is satisfied that a person pursues charitable purposes throughout the whole or a substantial part of Scotland, the Secretary of State may direct that that person shall, subject to such conditions as may be specified in the direction, be exempt from subsection (1) above.A direction made under this subsection may be revoked or amended by a further direction so made. 12 Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (11) above, any person who has been exempted from subsection (1) above by a direction of the Secretary of State under subsection (11) above shall, unless the Secretary of State otherwise directs, give to the local authorityin whose area he intends to organise a public charitable collection 3 months notice of that intention.A direction under this subsection may be revoked or amended by a further direction so made. 13 Subject to the provisions of this section, the Secretary of State may make regulations for the purposes of regulating public charitable collections and, without prejudice to that generality, regulations may include provision about the keeping and publication of accounts, provision for prevention of annoyance to the public and provision making it an offence to fail to comply with any obligation imposed by the regulations which is specified in the regulations as an obligation breach of which is an offence and making any person guilty of such an offence liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding £50 or such lesser sum as may be specified in the regulations. 14 Regulations under this section shall be made by statutory instrument subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.
