Non UK Digital National Register for Clean Air Zones

The purpose of the Digital National Register for Non-UK Vehicles is to enable the compliance assessment of non-UK vehicles according to the national CAZ Framework definitions, thereby reducing the reputational, political and legal risks associated with the current policy of issuing blanket PCNs to all non-UK vehicles that do not pay a charge, without evidence of their non-compliance. The proposed solution is to procure an outsourced, managed service from a third-party supplier, to build and run a Digital National Register of Non-UK Vehicles. The Digital National Register (database) would involve non-UK drivers registering their vehicle details, after which a compliance check would be carried out either automatically or manually by the third-party supplier. Details of compliant vehicles will be returned to the Local Authority on a whitelist and exempted from charges.
