Regulation 3 prescribes the content of applications for certificates of registration, regulation 4 requires application to be advertised, and regulation 5 provides for the timing of applications and for them to be deemed to be withdrawn in certain cases. Regulation 6 provides for the public to have access to applications, subject to the omission of matters relating to trade secrets and national defence. Regulation 7 prescribes the contents of the register of works required under section 9 of the 1906 Act and provides for matters relating to trade secrets and national defence to be omitted from the register, and regulation 8 provides for the public to have access to the register and for copies of parts of the register to be kept by the relevant local authorities. Regulation 9 prescribes the contents of certificates of registration. Regulation 10 provides for notification of changes to works, regulation 11 provides for amendment of the register and certificates of registration and regulation 12 for the application of the Regulations to existing works. Regulation 13 repeals section 9 of the 1906 Act in part, and revokes the 1933 Order and the 1957 Order.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
