3. Misuse of Authorisation
• Where authorisation has already been withdrawn but the former AE continues
• or where he was partly authorised but continued as if fully authorised,
• or where back-dated certificates are issued or certificates are improperly issued to a vehicle the AE is selling,
• or where he (or she) commits an assault,
these also are reasons for withdrawal of authorisation and probably will lead to further charges.MOT guidance explains in what circumstances an Authorised Examiners (AE) MOT authorisation will be withdrawn for single instances by the AE, Employee or agent.
