Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 Explanatory Notes

Codes of Practice

529.Paragraph 1 of Schedule 22 inserts a new Schedule A1 into the CDPA 1988. Paragraphs 1 and 2 of Part 1 of Schedule A1 enable the Secretary of State to establish procedures, through secondary legislation, to require a licensing body to adopt a code of practice that complies with criteria specified in the regulations. This is intended to be used where a licensing body fails to adhere to a self-regulatory code containing minimum standards set by Government.
