Recommendation 20
20
Paragraph: 71
Standard of proof for regulator's contravention and restriction notices must be proportionate.
Conclusion
The regulator will have the power to issue contravention and restriction notices on premises, which may have serious consequences. This may well be justified in certain circumstances given the risks involved. However, it is important that the standard of proof required before using such notices is proportionate to the severity of the non-compliance.
