Impact Tests and Assessments

Scottish Firms Impact Test

The proposed amendments will have very little impact on Scottish firms. There is some potential that businesses in rural communities will benefit from the opportunity to sign more settlements with the Local Facilities sign.

It is recognised that the Low Emission Zone policy will affect businesses, but this is not within the scope of the TSRGD amendments. This is addressed separately in LEZ regulations.

Competition Assessment

The proposed changes to the regulations are not considered to have any impact on competition. It is not considered likely that the proposals will directly or indirectly limit the range of suppliers, limit the ability of suppliers to compete, or reduce suppliers’ incentives to compete vigorously.

Digital Impact Test
