In respect of Acts of Parliament that extend to the Isle of Man the UK standard scale is used.
Schedule 1 to the Interpretation Act 1978[2] defines "the standard scale" for each United Kingdom jurisdiction with reference to the following statutes.
The setting of the levels of the standard scale of fines in Scotland is a matter devolved to the Scottish Government.
This limit was removed by section 85 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012.
Fines specified in prior legislation were converted to points on the standard scale by section 113C.
