"What special words mean in this law"

When you read this part of the law, some words have special meanings. The term "approved evidence of age document" means the same as it does in section 5(1) of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012. This helps you understand what the law is talking about.

The law also explains what "artificial UV tanning services" means. It refers to when someone pays to use a sunbed, sunlamp, or another device that gives off ultraviolet radiation. This is important to know when reading the rest of the law.
