Take the FPN, the disc and the proof of payment to the police and request to see the duty inspector and ask them to cancel the FPN under the 14 day rule.

And that was replaced by s.188, Finance Act 2013.

Quite correct.

S188 is on page 127 of the pdf (113 of the actual document):

However the initial point that the SORN has to be in force when you tax the vehicle still has to be valid. If it had lapsed then you don't get the 14 day exemption

SORN doesn't lapse anymore, it is valid until it is cancelled.

s.33(A),(2),(a), Vehicles Excise & Registration Act 1994.

But Sect 33A is just a repeat of the content of the Finance Act S188 and still doesn't address what a relevant declaration is.

Is SORN a 'relevant declaration'? If so where is this stated?

This may seem pedantic but Courts of Law are that way inclined. If it can not be evidenced that it is a relevant declaration then it isn't

As quoted in post 7 - s.33A, (2), (a), Vehicles Excise & Registration Act 1994.

S33A(2)a

For the purposes of this section—
(a) there is a relevant declaration applying to a vehicle if the
particulars and declaration required to be furnished and made
by regulations under section 22(1D) have been furnished and
made in relation to the vehicle in accordance with the
regulations, and

Sect 22(1D)

(1)The Secretary of State may by regulations—

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)require a person by, through or to whom any vehicle is sold or disposed of to furnish the particulars prescribed by the regulations in the manner so prescribed,

Appears to discuss passing information on sale or disposal.

That quote is from s.22(1)(d).

s.22(1D), Vehicles Excise & Registration Act 1994:
'The Secretary of State may by regulations require a person—
(a)who surrenders a vehicle licence,
(aa)who does not renew a vehicle licence for a vehicle registered under this Act in his name,
(b)who does not renew a vehicle licence for a vehicle kept by him, or
(c)who keeps an unlicensed vehicle at any place in the United Kingdom,
to furnish such particulars and make such declarations as may be prescribed by the regulations, and to do so at such times and in such manner as may be so prescribed.'


And the regulations referred to are 'The Road Vehicles (Statutory Off-Road Notification) Regulations 1997'
