(3)The provision that may be made under subsection (2) includes, in particular—
(a)provision corresponding to any provision of sections 2 to 30, or
(b)provision applying any provision of this Chapter in its application to persons of a description specified in the regulations,

(b)paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 to EEAR(NI) 2006.
