<p>The Government ran a consultation from 22 September 2016 to 2 November 2016 on
its proposal to amend the exemption given to vehicles manufactured before 1960 and
received over 2,217 responses. After careful consideration of the responses received,
the Government amended the exemption to vehicles manufactured over 40 years of age
on a rolling basis, subject to the vehicle not being “substantially changed”. The
Government published a modified definition of “substantial change” at the same time
as it’s response to the consultation. The Government continues to undertake discussions
with stakeholders and the publication of revised guidance on substantial change is
planned for later this year, before the regulations come into force on 20 May 2018.</p><p>
