Control of Asbestos Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012

Northern Ireland | Active
This Statutory Rule revokes, re-enacts and consolidates the Control of Asbestos Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2007 (the “2007 Regulations”) and the Control of Asbestos (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 (the “2010 Regulations”) with some modifications. The driver behind remaking the regulations is to comply with the European Commission’s (“the Commission”) reasoned opinion dated 16 February 2011, Infringement number 2006/50421. The main change will be to the scope of the exemption set out in the Directive in relation to the requirements to notify work to the relevant enforcing authority, carry out medical examinations and to keep a register of work. Other modifications reflect amendments made to the 2007 Regulations by other legislation.
