Schedule 4: Codes of practice under section 41: principles, objectives, content Section 51: Duties and the first codes of practice
This section establishes that duties in respect of which OFCOM must issue a code of practice (under section 41) will only apply once the first code of practice for that duty has come into force. This could mean that different duties will apply at different times, depending on when the relevant code for a particular duty comes into force. This section specifies the relevant duties and the corresponding codes under section 41.
	Section 46(9) specifies that this section is subject to Part 2 of Schedule 17. This is intended to clarify that a provider of a service currently regulated by Part 4B of the Communications Act 2003 does not need to comply with the safety duties while subject to the transitional arrangements set out in Part 2 of Schedule 17.
