Regulation 2 prescribes the information to be included in an appropriate statement to be given to an occupier when entering and searching premises in accordance with a warrant under paragraph 4 of Schedule 5 to the Act. Such information includes a statement of authorisation, a statement of the duly authorised person’s rights, powers and obligations under the Act and a statement of the offence under paragraph 8 of Schedule 5 to the Act. These Regulations do not impose a cost upon business.

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.
