Return of licences
233 Return of licences
This section applies if, after seizing a licence or driver authorising document under section 232, an authorised officer finds—
the licence is not suspended, has not been cancelled, and has not ended; or
the licence has been suspended, the suspension has ended and a replacement licence or driver authorising document has not been issued; or
the licence has been amended, the amendment is recorded on the licence or driver authorising document and a replacement licence or driver authorising document has not been issued; or
for a licence or driver authorising document seized under section 232(1)(d)—the person who produced the licence or driver authorising document is the licensee.
An authorised officer must return the licence or driver authorising document to the licensee.
However, if the licence period has ended, the authorised officer is not required to return the licence or driver authorising document to the licensee.
