Offences and penalties

38. If an offence under the Regulations is committed by a corporate body or by certain representatives of that corporate body the representative as well as the corporate body will be liable for prosecution. Similarly if a partner of a Scottish partnership commits an offence under the Regulations then the partner along with the partnership: this does not apply to a limited liability partnership.

39. In the case of a limited liability partnership any member of that partnership or any person acting on behalf of the partnership shall be liable for prosecution.
