To add extra measures to prevent metal theft, the Scrap Metal Dealers Act was introduced in 1964. This act stated the following:

Scrap metal dealers must register with their local authority every three years.

Every scrap metal dealer must keep a book recording all metal received, processed and despatched.

No scrap metal dealer can acquire any scrap metal from a person under 16.

Though this act helped combat some of the metal theft problems, the number of metal theft incidents was still very high. At this point, the UK Government implemented the newest Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013, which is still in place today. This new act includes regulations such as:

All scrap metal dealers must verify the name and address of the seller at the point of sale, which is recorded and retained by the dealer.

All scrap metal dealers must obtain a license, which local authorities will assess candidates for.

Buying scrap metal for cash is now an illegal offence.
