Section 13—Notification of convictions and cancellation of fireworks licence
45.Section 13 allows a court to cancel a person’s fireworks licence if the person is convicted of a relevant offence (as defined in section 7(4)) (see subsection (2)). The court must inform the Scottish Ministers of the cancellation and may make an order for forfeiture of any fireworks in that person’s possession. In addition, if the court does not cancel a person’s fireworks licence but the person has been convicted of a “relevant offence”, the court must inform the Scottish Ministers of the conviction to allow them to note that on the register and consider instigating the revocation process under section 12.
